Summary:
Whole bunch of changes aimed to make error messages more clear and
concise.
1/ Wording and language is unified. We make errors sound more like a
type system violations, rather than linter reccomendations.
Particularly, we refrain from saying things like "may be null" - this is
a linter-style statement that may provoke discussions (what if the
developer knows it can not be null in this particular case).
Instead, we refer to declared nullability and nullability of actual values. This way, it is more clear that this is not a heuristic, this is how rules of a type-system work.
2/ Additionally, we drop things like field class in places when the
context should be clear by who looks at the error. We expect the user
sees the code and the error caption. So e.g. we don't repeat the word "field"
twice.
3/ In cases when we are able to retrieve formal param name, we include it for
usability.
4/ For Field not initialized error, we refer to Initializer methods:
this is a non-obvious but important nullsafe feature.

Summary:
There was a precision loss during the substitution of array block. For example:
Callee's abstract memory includes an array block as follows, where `a` is a parameter.
```
a.elements -> { a.elements[*] with a.elements.size }
```
Callers' abstract memory includes a pointer that may point to multiple array blocks.
```
c -> { x, y }
x.elements -> { x.elements[*] with x.elements.size }
y.elements -> { y.elements[*] with y.elements.size }
```
When the callee is called with the parameter `c`, the callees memory is substituted to:
```
x.elements -> { x.elements[*] with top , y.elements[*] with top }
y.elements -> { x.elements[*] with top , y.elements[*] with top }
```
because `a.elements[*]` was substituted to `{ x.elements[*] , y.elements[*] }`
and `a.elements.size` was substituted to `top ( = x.elements.size join y.elements.size )`.
This diff tries to keep the precision in the specific case, not to join the sizes of array blocks.
So now the same callee's abstract memory is substituted to:
```
x.elements -> { x.elements[*] with x.elements.size }
y.elements -> { y.elements[*] with y.elements.size }
```

Summary:
In some apps executors are obtained by calling standard framework methods (and not by using DI with annotations).
To treat this style, we need to
- Detect calls that return such executors (`do_executor_effect`) and tag the return result with an `Attribute` indicating that it is now an executor, plus what thread it uses.
- Use that information when calling `execute`, to resolve the executor, if any, and its thread (in `do_work_scheduling` via `AttributeDomain.get_executor_constraint`).
- All this requires a new domain component, mapping variables to attributes. This extends the component previously used for remembering whether a variable is the result of a check on whether we run on the UI thread.
At the same time, I un-nested some functions from the transfer function for readability.

We also update the cost summary and `jsonbug.cost_item` to include whether a method is on the ui thread so that we don't repeatedly compute this at diff time for complexity increase issues.
Note that `*_UI_THREAD` cost issues are assumed to be more strict than `*_COLD_START` reports at the moment. Next, we can also consider adding a new issue type that combines both such as `*_UI_THREAD_AND_COLD_START` (i.e. for methods that are both on cold start and run on ui thread).

Summary:
This diff adds semantics of Java function calls of enum `values` inside class initializers.
* Java class initializer function initializes a specific field `$VALUES`, which points to the list
of enum values.
* The `values` function of enum class returns the value of `$VALUES`.
The problem is when the `values` function is called inside the class initializer, for example:
```
enum Color {
RED,
GREEN,
BLUE;
static {
for (Color c : Color.values()) {}
}
}
```
This introduces a recursive dependency: the class initializer calls `Color.values` and the function
returns `Color.$VALUES` the value of which should be initialized in the class initializer.
To address the problem, this diff finds the value of `$VALUES` in its abstract memory when
`values` is called inside the class initializer.

Add precision to analysis by elaborating the thread-status domain. This is done by having unknown (bottom), UI, BG or Any (both/top) elements in the lattice. This way, when we branch on thread-identity (if I am on UI thread do this, otherwise do that), we know that in one branch we are on UI thread and on the other we are *not* on the UI thread (BG thread), where previously the other branch would just go to top.
With this knowledge we can throw away pairs that come from callees which run on a thread that is impossible, given the current caller thread identity. This can happen when annotations are used incorrectly, and since this is the purview of annot-reachability, we just drop those pairs entirely.

```
void fresh_pure(int[] a) {
a = new int[1];

Similarly, in C++, we considered the following program as impure because it was writing to `s`:
```
Simple* reassign_pure(Simple* s) {
s = new Simple{2};
return s;
}
```
This diff fixes that issue by starting the check for address equivalnce in pre-post not directly from the addresses of the stack variables, but from the addresses pointed to by these stack variables. That means, we only consider things to be impure if the actual values pointed by the parameters change.

Summary:
This is the first take on strict mode semantics.
The main invariant of strict mode is the following:
If the function passes `NullsafeStrict` check and its return value is
NOT annotated as Nullable, then the function does not indeed return
nulls, subject to unsoundness issues (which should either be fixed, or
should rarely happen in practice).
This invariant helps the caller in two ways:
1. Dangerous usages of non strict functions are visible, so the caller is enforced to check them (via assertions or conditions), or strictify them.
2. When the function is strict, the caller does not need to worry about
being defensive.
Biggest known issues so far:
1. Condition redundant and over-annotated warnings don't fully
respect strict mode, and this leads to stupid false positives. (There is
so much more stupid false positives in condition redundant anyway, so
not particularly a big deal for now).
2. Error reporting is not specific to mode. (E.g. we don't distinct real nullables and non-trusted non-nulls, which can be misleading). To be
improved as a follow up.

- Maintain UI-thread-ness through the call stack (if a callee is on UI thread then the
trace any call site must be on the UI thread too).
- If we are not on the UI thread we assume we are on a background thread.
- Traces with "UI-thread" status cannot interleave but all other combinations can.
- We do not track other annotations (eg WorkerThread or AnyThread) as they can be
erroneously applied -- other checkers should catch those errors (annotation reachability).
- Top is AnyThread, and is used as the initial state for analysis.
Interestingly, by choosing the right strategy for choosing initial state and applying callee summaries gets rid of some false negatives in the tests even though we have not introduced any path sensitivity yet.

There are 3 ways pulse tracks history. This is at least one too many. So
far, we have:
1. "histories": a humble list of "events" like "assigned here", "returned from call", ...
2. "interproc actions": a structured nesting of calls with a final "action", eg "f calls g calls h which does blah"
3. "traces", which combine one history with one interproc action
This diff gets rid of interproc actions and makes histories include
"nested" callee histories too. This allows pulse to track and display
how a value got assigned across function calls.
Traces are now more powerful and interleave histories and interproc
actions. This allows pulse to track how a value is fed into an action,
for instance performed in callee, which itself creates some more
(potentially now interprocedural) history before going to the next step
of the action (either another call or the action itself).
This gives much better traces, and some examples are added to showcase
this.
There are a lot of changes when applying summaries to keep track of
histories more accurately than was done before, but also a few
simplifications that give additional evidence that this is the right
concept.

The disambiguation is done entirely based on the meaning of the annotation.
Here, while `UiThread`/`MainThread` are genuine method/class annotations
and not return annotations, the reverse is true for `ForUiThread`/`ForNonUiThread`.

Problem: There are two phases for finding a fixpoint, widening and narrowing. First, it finds a fixpoint with widening, in function level. After that, it finds a fixpoint with narrowing. A problem is that sometimes an overly-approximated, imprecise, values by widening are flowed to the following loops. They are hard to narrow in the narrowing phase because there is a cycle preventing it.
To mitigate the problem, it tries to do narrowing, in loop level, right after it found a fixpoint of a loop. Thus, it narrows before the widened values are flowed to the following loops. In order to guarantee the termination of the analysis, this eager narrowing is applied only to the outermost loops.

- `events` are things (including lock acquisitions) which eventually happen during the execution of a procedure.
- `order` are pairs of `(lock, event)` such that there is a trace through the procedure which at some point acquires `lock` and before releasing it performs `event`.
A deadlock would be reported if for two procedures, `(lock1,lock2)` is in `order` of procedure 1 and `(lock2,lock1)` is in `order` of procedure 2. This condition/domain allowed for the false positive fixed in the tests, as well as was unwieldy, because it required translating between the two sets.
The new domain has only one set of "critical pairs" `(locks, event)` such that there is a trace where `event` occurs, and *right before it occurs* the locks held are exactly `locks` (no over/under approximation). This allows keeping all information in one set, simplifies the procedure call handling and eliminates the known false positive.

Ideally the analyser should equate locks `this.x.f` and `a.x.f` in different methods if they can alias.
The heuristic removed here was rarely used and is in the way of a re-write of the analysis.
It was also badly implemented, as this should ideally be the comparison relation of `Lock`.

This diff generates a symbolic value when a function returns only
exceptions. Previously, the exception expression is evaluated to top,
thus it was propagated to other functions, which made those costs as
top. For preventing that situation, this diff changed:
* exception expressions are evaluated to bottom, and
* if callee's return value is bottom, it generates a symbolic value

This diff adds an eval mode for the substitutions of the cost results, in order to avoid precision
loss by joining two symbols.
The usual join of two different symbolic values, `s1` and `s2`, becomes top due to the limitation of

cost values only care about the upperbounds.

Summary:
This continues work for eliminating Annot.Item.t from Nullsafe low-level
code.
The introduced function `from_nullsafe_type` is called when we infer
initial type of the equation based on the function or field formal signature.
Before that, we did it via reading the annotation directly, which
complicates the logic and making introducing Unknown nullability tricky.
## Clarifying the semantics of PropagatesNullable
This diff also clarifies (and changes) the behavior of PropagatesNullable params.
Previously, if the return value of a function that has PropagatesNullable params was
annotated as Nullable, nullsafe was effectively ignoring PropagatesNullable effect.
This is especially bad because one can add Nullable annotation based on the logic "if the function can return `null`, it should be annotated with Nullable`.
In the new design, there is no possibility for such a misuse: the code that
applies the rule "any param is PropagatesNullable hence the return
value is nullable even if not explicitly annotated" lives in NullsafeType.ml, so
this will be automatically taken into account.
Meaning that now we implicitly deduce Nullable annotation for the return value, and providing it explicitly as an alternative that does not change the effect.
In the future, we might consider annotating the return value with `Nullable` explicit.

In the cost checker, the range of selected control variables are used to estimate the number of loop iteration. However, sometimes the ranges of control variables are not related to how many times the loop iteration. This diff strengthens the condition for them as:
1. integers from `size` models
2. integers constructed from `+` or `-`
3. integers constructed from `*`
For the last one, the loop iteration is likely to be log scale of the range of the control variable:
```

i *= 2;
}

domain is to support the case where there are mismatches between value of a control variable and
actual number of loop iterations. For example,
```
while((c = file_channel.read(buf)) != -1) { ... }

the loop will iterates as the file size, but the control variable `c` does not have that value. In
these cases, it assigns a symbolic value of the file size to the modeled range of `c`, then which
is used when calculating the overall cost.

Summary:
In D17156724, we forked nullsafe tests, which was a strategy to
introduce nullsafe-gradual mode back then.
The reason was "gradual" mode is a pretty big change in a way Infer
handles annotations, so we wanted to tests both scenarios: gradual and
non-gradual mode.
The plan was to deprecate "non-gradual" tests at some point, hence we
decided to go with duplication.
Now we have a better approach to ensure "gradual" features are well
covered. The approach is the following.
1. [Mostly finished] Improve existings tests so that they cover negative and positive
cases. With this, we can safely add something like
--non-annotated-default UNKNOWN_NULLABILITY to the test config and be sure tests still make
sense (i.e. don't pass simply because annotations don't make sense
anymore)
2. [In progress]. Refactor nullsafe code so that instead of using of Annot.ml everywhere we use a special abstraction telling if the class is annotated with Nullable, Nonnull, or not annotated. With this change, we essenstially have a single place we need to test, which removes the need to have 2 pair of tests for each feature.
3. [To be done]. Introduce Uknown nullability and add small number of tests specifically
for that feature (together with existing tests).
NOTE: I did not rename `nullsafe-default` back to `nullsafe` to not
pollute blame without need.

corresponding (minimally different from above) peace of code where we expect a bug to NOT happen. (This is to ensure bug is happening for exact reason we think it is happening).
2. Conversely: for each peace of code where we expect a bug to be NOT
present, there shuold be a peace of code where the bug IS happening.
(Otherwise there can be too many reasons for a bug NOT to happen).
3. Convention: end corresponding methods IsOK and IsBUG correspondingly.
4. Keep code examples as small as possible.

Summary:
In next diff, we are going to introduce a new mode of nullsafe
(gradual). For testing, we are going to employ the strategy used by jvillard
for Pulse.
In this diff we split tests into two subfolders, one for the default and one for the gradual
mode.
We are planning to make the gradual mode default eventually. For that, most
new features will make sense for gradual mode, and we will mostly evolve
tests for that mode.
As for 'default' mode, we need to preserve tests mostly to ensure we don't introduce
regressions.
Occasionally, we might make changes that make sense for both modes, in
this (expected relatively rare) cases we will make changes to both set
of tests.
An alternative strategy would be to have two sets of issues.exp files,
one for gradual and one for default mode. This has an advantage of each
java file to be always tested twice, but disadvantage is that it will be
harder to write meaningful test code so that it makes sense for both
modes simultaneously.

`nullsafe` currently allows the following:

```
But disallows the following:
```
public void Object willBeAnIssue() { return null; }
```
This was a deliberate choice made back in 2014.
The motivation was to provide a way to tell the checker "I know it can not be null, trust me".
A huge problem with that approach is that it is extremely non-intuitive and surprising, and contradicts with pretty much everything when Nonnull or similar annotations are used in external world.
This is not the way how checkers should be supressed.
We do provide 2 options to express this intention, namely `assertNotNull` and `assumeNotNull` would do the thing.
This is a much better approach for additional reason: assertNotNull is
granular and applies only to the exact expression that is under
question. In contrast, suppressing the check on the whole function level
make any modifications of a function dangerous.
