Using clang's method resolution. This means that, in method calls, clang gives you a pointer to the declaration of the method.
In some cases though, clang doesn't find the right method. For example, when it finds a method in a category, we
need to make it into a method in the corresponding class, because that's how we treat categories in Infer. Moreover,
when it finds a method in a protocol, that is not useful for us, since the implementation will be in some class. Finally,
sometimes the call is on an object of type id, in which case clang doesn't know what is the correct declaration. In
those cases, we fall back to what we were doing before of approximating the method resolution. We also refactor
some of the code.

int f = (r = 3);
// type of (r = 3) expression:
// C/objC -> int rvalue

Summary: public Two cases were not handled properly so far:
1. Declaration of a reference variable missed reference bit in type
2. Parameters to a function expecting T& had type T.
The way to distinguish reference types from value types is to look
whether parameter is type 'T rvalue' or type 'T lvalue' (xvalue probably as well)
Unfortunately, we can't just say 'T lvalue' = 'T&' because it would break
a lot of things in our frontend.
However, we know that when parameter to a function call has type 'T lvalue', it has to be 'T&' type.
Same applies when init_expression type is lvalue.
So, the solution is to add wrapper function that looks at results of `instruction` function and
expected expression type. Then if it's lvalue, wrap the type in reference.
Do this wrapping magic only when we know that lvalue mean reference type.
The rest of the changes is to make frontend tests pass - since we use different fields
in the AST, some of them were incorrectly set before and no one noticed.

Summary:
When someone runs --changed-only mode, there is a risk of corrupting the results
for future analyses. The problem is that changed-only mode does not analyze the callers of changed
procedures. If a subsequent analysis relies on the specs of one of these callers, they will be stale
and may give the wrong results. To be concrete, let's say we know `Parent.foo()` calls `Child.bar()` and we do the following rounds of analysis:
Analysis round 1: Analyze all files, including `Parent` and `Child`
Analysis round 2: Analyze `Child.bar()` only with `--changed-only flag`. `Parent.foo()` is now stale.
Analysis round 3: Add procedure `Parent.baz()` that calls `Parent.foo()`, analyze in (any) incremental mode.
The analysis will only analyze `Parent.baz()`. However, the specs for `Parent.foo()` are stale and may give us bad results for `Parent.baz()`. We want the analysis to re-analyze `Parent.baz()`, but before this diff it will not.
This diff fixes this problem by adding a `STALE` status bit to procedure summaries. In `--changed-only` mode,
the callers of a changed procedures are not re-analyzed, but their summaries are marked as stale. For both
`--changed-only` and regular incremental mode, callees of changed procedures that are marked as stale are
re-analyzed even if they have not changed. This is better than a more obvious solution like deleting stale
procedure summaries, since that would force the next analysis to re-analyze all stale procedures even if it
does not need the results for whatever analysis it is doing. This scheme implemented in this diff ensures
that each analysis only does the work that it needs to compute reliable results for its changed procedures.

Summary:
When detecting a resource leak, Infer used to raise an Leak exception and then prevent the specs to be computed for the paths containing a leak. This diff prevents resource leak to stop the analysis.
Summary:
Creating a persistent reference to an Activity leads to a nasty form of memory leaks (see http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/01/avoiding-memory-leaks.html, https://corner.squareup.com/2015/05/leak-canary.html). There are many ways to create a bad persistent reference to an Activity, but the most obvious one is via a static field.
This diff implements a very simple form of Activity leak checking by inspecting postconditions to see if a subtype of Activity is reachable from a static field (and it reports an error if so). This is a very simple and limited form of leak checking that does not understand the Android lifecycle at all. In particular, if one creates a persistent reference to an Activity and then nulls it out in `onDestroy` (a reasonably common pattern), this approach will wrongly report a bug.
Summary:
The methods in objc can have the same name in the same class, but one be instance and the other class,
so that we need to take the instance flag into account when defining unique names for ObjC methods.
Summary:
The symbolic execution was not stopping in case an unitialized dangling pointer was
passed to a function and then dereferenced inside the callee.
What would happen is that a wrong footprint would be added to the unititialized pointer
at the end of the function call in the caller proposition.
This checks that if we do:
frame * new_footprint
checks that we do not add heap predicates to the frame into uninitialized local variables.
If we can identify the variable then we raise a danglind pointer dereference. If instead
we cannot give a good explanation we give an internal error.
The latter case should be temporary. We should find a general way to raise dangling pointer
deref instead of the internal error.
I also fixed the model of getc that was the way I found the problem.
Summary:
This adds a sentinel check every time a function carrying a sentinel attribute

The clang location information is described in an incremental way: each location information is a delta with respect to the previous one in the AST. This is based on a the visit of the AST nodes which corresponds to the order in which the lines are printed with the standard clang AST dump:
clang -cc1 -ast-dump filename.c
This diff adds a preprocessing phase to the front-end so that location information is composed during a visit, and explicit location information is used instead.
In the case of include files, we report the last known location before including the file.
The current file for a function is the file where it is defined. So if a function is entirely defined in a .h file, then the location information will consistently be about the .h file. If instead a function is defined in the source file being analyzed, and some AST nodes come from macro expansion, line information will refer to the original file.
The front-end tests reveal that the location information was incorrect in a few dot files.
Test Plan: arc unit, after having fixed the wrong location in the existing .dot files
