Summary:
See added test: pulse sometimes insisted that an issue was latent even
though the condition that made it latent could not be influenced (hence
could the issue could never become manifest) by callers because it was
unrelated to the pre, i.e. it came from a mutation inside the function.
In these cases, we want to report the issue straight away instead of
keeping it latent.

Summary:
Before returning a summary, restore formals to their initial values.
This gets rid of a false latent because the value in the path condition
is now garbage-collected.
Added a test for the tricky case of structs passed as values.

Summary:
Whenever an equality "t = v" (t an arbitrary term, v a variable) is
added (or "v = t"), remember the "t -> v" mapping after canonicalising t
and v. Use this to detect when two variables are equal to the same term:
`t = v` and `t = v'` now yields `v = v'` to be added to the equality
relation of variables. This increases the precision of the arithmetic
engine.
Interestingly, the impact on most code I've tried is:
1. mostly same perfs as before, if a bit slower (could be within noise)
2. slightly more (latent) bugs reported in absolute numbers
I would have expected it to be more expensive and yield fewer bugs (as
fewer false positives), but there could be second-order effects at play
here where we get more coverage. We definitely get more latent issues
due to dereferencing pointers after testing nullness, as can be seen in
the unit tests as well, which may alone explain (2).
There's some complexity when adding term equalities where the term
is linear, as we also need to add it to `linear_eqs` but `term_eqs` and
`linear_eqs` are interested in slightly different normal forms.

Summary:
Having different behaviours inter-procedurally and intra-procedurally
sounds like a bad design in retrospect. The model of free() should not
depend on whether we currently know the value is not null as that means
some specs are missing from the summary.

This diff adds uninitialized value check in pulse. For now, it supports only simple cases,
- declared variables with a type of integer, float, void, and pointer
- malloced pointer variables that points to integer, float, void, and pointer
TODOs: I will add more cases in the following diffs.
- declared/malloced array

Summary:
List of things happening in this unreviewable diff:
- moved PulsePathCondition to PulseSledge
- renamed --pulse-path-conditions to --pudge
- PulsePathCondition now contains all the arithmetic of pulse
(inferbo+concrete intervals+pudge). In particular, moved arithmetic
attributes into PulsePathCondition.t. PulsePathCondition plays the
role of PulseArithmetic (combining all domains).
- added tests for a false positive involving free()
- PulseArithmetic is now just a thin wrapper around PulsePathCondition
to operate on states directly (instead of on path conditions).
- The rest is mostly moving code into PulsePathCondition (eg, from
PulseInterproc) and adjusting it.

Summary:
When encountering a constant, pulse creates an abstract value (a
variable) to represent it, and remembers that it's equal to it. The
problem is that pulse doesn't yet know how to deal with the fact that
some variables are going to be equal to each other.
This hacks around this issue in the case of constants, within the same
procedure, by remembering which constants have been assigned to which
place-holder variables, and serving those variables again when the same
constant is translated again.
Limitation: this doesn't work across procedure calls as the "constant
maps" are not saved in summaries.
Something to look out for: we don't want to make `if (p == NULL)` create
a path where `p` is invalid (we only make null invalid when we see an
assignment from 0, i.e. `p = NULL;`).

Summary:
First version of a new memory leak check based on Pulse. The idea is to examine unreachable cells in the heap and check that the "Allocated" attribute is available but the "Invalid CFree" isn't. This is done when we remove variables from the state.
Currently it only works for malloc, we can extend it to other allocation functions later.

Summary:
Adding a model for malloc: we add an attribute "Allocated". This can be used for implementing memory leaks: whenever the variables get out of scope, we can check that if the variable has an attribute Allocated, it also has an attribute Invalid CFree.
Possibly we will need more details in the Allocated attribute, to know if it's malloc, or other allocation function, but we can add that later when we know how it should look like.
