Summary:
`delete` works exactly like `free` so merge both models together. Also
move the `free(0)` test to nullptr.cpp as it seems more appropriate.

Summary: We model internal builtin `__new` function to return a non-null value. This fixes nullptr_dereference false positives where we explicitly check the result of a function call for nullptr when the function returns a newly created object.

Summary: To avoid NULLPTR_DEREFERENCE false positives we want to model some functions as returning non-null. A new flag --pulse-model-return-nonnull allows us to provide a list of such functions.

Summary:
Keyword `thread_local` in cpp allows us to create a variable with thread storage duration, meaning that the object's lifetime begins when the thread begins and ends when the thread ends.
We get `NULLPTR_DEREFERENCE` false positive for `thread_local` variable since we reallocate it in the `VariableLifetimeBegins` metadata instruction and we do not see further updates to the variable. To solve the issue we special case `VariableLifetimeBegins` instruction for global variables.

Summary: To avoid NULLPTR_DEREFERENCE false positives we want to treat some functions as `abort`. A new flag `--pulse-model-abort` allows us to provide a list of such functions.

Summary:
Note: Disabled by default.
Having some support for values, we can report when a null or constant
value is being dereferenced. The particularity here is that we don't
report when 0 is a possible value for the address, or even if we know
that the value of the address can only be 0 in that branch! Instead, we
allow ourselves to report only when we the address has been *set* to
NULL (or any constant).
This is in line with how pulse deals with other issues: only report when
1. we see an address become invalid, and
2. we see the same address be used later on
