Summary: In ObjC, when a method is called on nil, there is no NPE, the method is actually not called and the return value is 0/false/nil. There is an exception in the case where the return type is non-POD. In that case it's UB and we want to report an error.

Summary: We were missing a part of the trace if it was going through a nil summary as the invalidation was set in the nil summary. Instead of creating a fresh value for return in the nil summary {self=0}{return=0}, we return self {self=0}{return=self}. This way we keep all the information about invalidation in the trace.

Summary: When a method is called in ObjC on nil, there is no NPE, the method is actually not called and the return value is 0/false/nil. (There is an exception in the case where the return type is non-POD. In that case it's UB. This will be addressed later). To implement this behaviour we add additional summary to ObjC instance methods {self = 0} {return = 0}. We also want to make sure that inferred summary will not be used in we call a method on nil, hence, we add a path condition {self > 0} to get a contradiction when needed.

Summary: Added some basic examples for Objective-C we want to address next in pulse nullptr dereference analysis. In particular, we should not get a `nil` dereference error when we call a method on `nil`, except if the method returns a non-POD (Plain Old Data) type.
