Summary:
The diff is very big but it's mostly removing code. It was inspired by the fact that we were getting Dead Store FPs because we were modeling some functions from CoreFoundation and CoreGraphics directly as alloc in the frontend, which caused the parameters of the function to be seen as dead. See the new test.
To deal with this, if we are going to skip the function, we model it as malloc instead. Given how many models we had for those "model as malloc" functions, I removed them to rely solely on the new mechanism.
The modeling of malloc and release was still based on the old retain count implementation, even though all we do here is a malloc/free kind of analysis. I also changed
that to be actually malloc/free which removed many Assert false in the tests. CFRelease is not exactly free though, and it's possible to use the variable afterwards. So used a custom free builtin that only cares about removing the Memory attribute and focuses on minimizing Memory Leaks FPs.
Otherwise we were translating CFBridgingRelease as a special cast, and this wasn't working. To simplify this as well, I removed all the code for the special cast, and just modeled CFBridgingRelease and CFAutorelease also as free_cf, to avoid Memory Leak false positives. I also treated the cast __bridge_transfer as a free_cf model. This means we stopped trying to report Memory Leaks on those objects.
The modeling of CoreGraph release functions was done in the frontend, but seemed simpler to also simplify that code and model all the relevant functions.

Summary:
Both `stringWithUTF8String` and `stringWithString` implements copy semantics that copies the content of their parameter into a newly allocated buffer. We modeled this as pointer assignment in the past, which means that once we write
```
NSString* foo() {
char buf[...];
...
return [NSString stringWithUTF8String:buf];
}
```
We are going to get a spurious stack variable address escape report because local pointer `buf` is assigned to the newly created string and the string gets returned.
This diff tries to address the issue by heap-allocating a buffer and `memcpy` the contents in `stringWithUTF8String` and `stringWithString`. But this change will create another problem: the allocated buffer will be reported as leaked by the backend, while in reality those buffers won't actually be leaked as they are allocated in a region that will be periodically autoreleased. To suppress spurious memory leak FPs, I added another attribute `Awont_leak` that will suppress the leakage report on any expressions that get tagged with it.

Summary:
This diff tries to achieve the followings: if we have the following C++ codes:
```
bool foo(int x, int y) {
return &x == &y;
}
```
We want the C++ frontend to emit Sil as if the input is written as
```
bool foo(int x, int y) {
if (&x == &y) return 1; else return 0;
}
```
This matches the behavior of our Java frontend.
The reason why we prefer an explicit branch is that it will force the backend to eagerly produce two different specs for `foo`. Without the explicit branch, for the above example the backend would produce one spec with `return = (&x == &y)` as the post condition, which is not ideal because (1) we don't want local variables to escape to the function summary, and (2) with the knowledge that no two local variables may alias each other, the backend could actually determines that `&x == &y` is always false, emitting a more precise postcondition `return = 0`. This is not possible if we do not eagerly resolve the comparison expression.

Summary:
Introduce `infer-<command>` for each command, except for internal commands
(only `infer-clang` for now) which are not exported. Install these executables
(which are just symlinks to `infer`) on `make install`. The main executable
looks at the name it was invoked with to figure out if it should behave as a
particular command.
Get rid of `InferClang`, `InferAnalyze`, and `InferPrint`. As a bonus, we now
only need to build one executable: `infer`, which should be a few seconds
faster (less link time).
`InferAnalyze` is now `infer-analyze` and `InferPrint` is `infer-print`. To run
`InferClang`, use a symlink named `clang`, `clang++`, etc. to `infer`. There
are such symlinks available in "infer/lib/wrappers/" already.
I also noticed that the scripts in xcodebuild_wrappers/ don't seem useful
anymore, so use wrappers/ instead, as for `make`.

Summary:
Record an abstraction of the bug traces in the tests. The abstraction of a
trace is the sequence of descriptions. In practice, descriptions are either
empty, or of the form "start/end/return from/call to procedure X". They seem
pretty stable.
Motivation: there is nothing testing the traces reported by Infer right now,
even though they are surfaced to developers. For instance, Quandary uses
--issues-txt instead of --issues-tests to make sure the traces do not regress.
This change would make this approach more widespread.

mean that the object carrying the attribute is null because it was the result
of a method call from a null object. However, one cannot add attributes to null,
so we had to delay nullifying the object in order to have the attribute until we
can assign it to a program variable. However, if the temp variable was used in a condition,
we were not taking into account that its meaning is null. This diff addresses that and fixes
many FPs that we have encounter.
