Summary: To avoid dead store false positives we skip initialization of a variable that has an `unused` attribute. However, this causes uninitialized value false positives when the variable is later used in macros. To fix this, instead of skipping initialization we record the information about `unused` attribute in local variable data that we can later use for filtering out dead store issues.

n$3=NSArray.arrayWithObjects:count:(temp:objc_object* const [2*8],2:int)

This will allow all the analyses to be able to call closures without any special treatment: we transform the call to variables that point to closures into normal function calls. We treat only ObjC blocks at the moment, with C++ lambdas to be done as a next step.
We aimed to achieve certain results in Pulse (see tests: avoid memory leaks and NPEs FPs) while also keeping the biabduction analysis working as before.

Summary:
Move the implementation of implicit getters and setters from the biabduction to the clang frontend so these methods are accessible to all the checkers.
*Background*: In Objective-C when properties are created in the interface of a class, the compiler creates automatically the instance variable for it and also the getter and setter in the implementation of the class. In the frontend we collect the information about which method is the implicit getter and setter of which instance variable (we get the method declaration but not the implementation), and here we add the implicit implementation.

For documentation of ```NSMutableArray```, https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsmutablearray?language=objc
The underlying mechanism for ```NSMutableArray``` is quite complicated. It changes the underlying data structure during runtime, so it is possible to have say O(log n) complexity for accessing element in array. (See here https://opensource.apple.com/source/CF/CF-855.11/CFArray.h) However, this is unlikely to happen if the engineer does not abuse the usage of the class ```NSMutableArray``` according to at least two ios engineers. So here the complexity is set to match the normal expectation of the complexity.

This models ARC implementation of dealloc, see https://clang.llvm.org/docs/AutomaticReferenceCounting.html#dealloc. Dealloc methods can be added to ObjC classes to free C memory for example, but the deallocation of the ObjC instance variables of the object is done automatically. So here we add this explicitly to Infer:
1. First, we add an empty dealloc method when it is not written explicitly.
2. For each dealloc method (including the implicitly added ones) we add calls to dealloc of the ObjC instance variables.

Summary:
This diff implements part of the memory management for Objective-C classes in ARC, namely that `dealloc` is called when the objects become unreachable. In reality the semantics of ARC says that this happens when their reference count becomes 0, but we are not modelling this yet in Pulse. However, we could in the future.
This fixes false positives memory leaks when the memory is freed in dealloc.
`dealloc` is often implicit in Objective-C, it also calls the dealloc of instance variables and superclass. None of this is implemented yet, and will be done in a future diff. This will be added in the frontend probably, similarly to how it's done for C++ destructors.
This is an important part of modelling Objective-C semantics in Infer, I looked at whether this should be a preanalysis to be used by all analyses but this needs Pulse. So the idea is that any analysis that needs to understand Objective-C memory model well, should have Pulse as a preanalysis.

Summary:
In order to test cost analysis results, currently we rely on having an arbitrary cost threshold (200) and report issues that exceed this cost. For instance, a cost of 201 is considered expensive and reported as `EXPENSIVE_EXECUTION_TIME` issue in cost tests.
This means, if we change the cost analysis in a slight way that results in some constant cost increase under 200, we wouldn't able to detect it. I find this unsatisfactory and somewhat hacky.
This diff adds the ability to write the result of `costs-report.json` into a separate `cost-issues.exp` and then compare the actual costs (not only than relying on this arbitrary threshold reporting mechanism).

Just like `CFBridgingRelease` we want to be able to model functions that are specific to a given codebase that make a transfer of memory ownership so that developers don't need to worry about releasing that memory anymore, and hence, we don't want to report leaks on that memory.
Things get a little more complicated, because some of the functions we want to model are in a specific namespace, so with this flag we take both cases into account, when we are dealing with namespaces or not.

Summary:
Because in the real semantics CFRelease can be used more than once, and also the variables can be used after CFRelease in general, modelling this as `free` causes many `USE_AFTER_FREE` errors. Now we change the model to not add the `Invalid CFree` attribute, but to just remove the `Allocated` attribute. So we can model memory leaks in the simple case of `Create` and not `CFRelease` before going out of scope, but we avoid the `USE_AFTER_FREE`.
Since the model for CFRelease now diverges from free, changed the command line option for modelling to `pulse-model-release-pattern`.

This translates the construct `ObjCBridgedCastExpr` when the cast_kind is `OBC_BridgeTransfer`, or in syntax, the cast (`__bridge_transfer`).
This cast means that the object is passed from manual memory management to ARC, so one doesn't need to call `release` manually. It is important to model this to avoid false positives.
It translates it as a builtin that we then model in Pulse, the same way we modelled `CFBridgingRelease` which does the same thing.
The name of the builtin is `__free_cf` which is not ideal but I left it like that for compatibility with biabduction. We can change it once we remove this check from biabduction.
