Don't generate a checker-tagged node unconditionally on the first
checkDeadSymbols callback when no pointers are tracked.
This is a tiny performance optimization; it may change the behavior slightly
by making Static Analyzer bail out on max-nodes one node later (which is good)
but any test would either break for no good reason or become useless
every time someone sneezes.

It's an old bug that consists in stale references to symbols remaining in the
GDM if they disappear from other program state sections as a result of any
operation that isn't the actual dead symbol collection. The most common example
here is:
FILE *fp = fopen("myfile.txt", "w");
fp = 0; // leak of file descriptor
In this example the leak were not detected previously because the symbol
disappears from the public part of the program state due to evaluating
the assignment. For that reason the checker never receives a notification
that the symbol is dead, and never reports a leak.
This patch not only causes leak false negatives, but also a number of other
problems, including false positives on some checkers.
What's worse, even though the program state contains a finite number of symbols,
the set of symbols that dies is potentially infinite. This means that is
impossible to compute the set of all dead symbols to pass off to the checkers
for cleaning up their part of the GDM.
No longer compute the dead set at all. Disallow iterating over dead symbols.
Disallow querying if any symbols are dead. Remove the API for marking symbols
as dead, as it is no longer necessary. Update checkers accordingly.

One of the reasons why AnalyzerOptions is so chaotic is that options can be
retrieved from the command line whenever and wherever. This allowed for some
options to be forgotten for a looooooong time. Have you ever heard of
"region-store-small-struct-limit"? In order to prevent this in the future, I'm
proposing to restrict AnalyzerOptions' interface so that only checker options
can be retrieved without special getters. I would like to make every option be
accessible only through a getter, but checkers from plugins are a thing, so I'll
have to figure something out for that.
This also forces developers who'd like to add a new option to register it
properly in the .def file.
This is done by
* making the third checker pointer parameter non-optional, and checked by an
assert to be non-null.
* I added new, but private non-checkers option initializers, meant only for
internal use,
* Renamed these methods accordingly (mind the consistent name for once with
getBooleanOption!):
- getOptionAsString -> getCheckerStringOption,
- getOptionAsInteger -> getCheckerIntegerOption
* The 3 functions meant for initializing data members (with the not very
descriptive getBooleanOption, getOptionAsString and getOptionAsUInt names)
were renamed to be overloads of the getAndInitOption function name.
* All options were in some way retrieved via getCheckerOption. I removed it, and
moved the logic to getStringOption and getCheckerStringOption. This did cause
some code duplication, but that's the only way I could do it, now that checker
and non-checker options are separated. Note that the non-checker version
inserts the new option to the ConfigTable with the default value, but the
checker version only attempts to find already existing entries. This is how
it always worked, but this is clunky and I might end reworking that too, so we
can eventually get a ConfigTable that contains the entire configuration of the
analyzer.

MallocChecker no longer thinks that operator delete() that accepts the size of
the object to delete (available since C++14 or under -fsized-deallocation)
is some weird user-defined operator. Instead, it handles it like normal delete.
Additionally, it exposes a regression in NewDelete-intersections.mm's
testStandardPlacementNewAfterDelete() test, where the diagnostic is delayed
from before the call of placement new into the code of placement new
in the header. This happens because the check for pass-into-function-after-free
for placement arguments is located in checkNewAllocator(), which happens after
the allocator is inlined, which is too late. Move this use-after-free check
into checkPreCall instead, where it works automagically because the guard
that prevents it from working is useless and can be removed as well.
This commit causes regressions under -analyzer-config
c++-allocator-inlining=false but this option is essentially unsupported
because the respective feature has been enabled by default quite a while ago.

For InnerPointerChecker to function properly, both the checker itself
and parts of MallocChecker that handle relevant use-after-free problems
need to be turned on. So far, the latter part has been developed within
MallocChecker's NewDelete sub-checker, often causing warnings to appear
under that name. This patch defines a new CheckKind within MallocChecker
for the inner pointer checking functionality, so that the correct name
is displayed in warnings and in the ExplodedGraph.

In the current implementation, we run visitors until the fixed point is
reached.
That is, if a visitor adds another visitor, the currently processed path
is destroyed, all diagnostics is discarded, and it is regenerated again,
until it's no longer modified.
This pattern has a few negative implications:
- This loop does not even guarantee to terminate.
E.g. just imagine two visitors bouncing a diagnostics around.
- Performance-wise, e.g. for sqlite3 all visitors are being re-run at
least 10 times for some bugs.
We have already seen a few reports where it leads to timeouts.
- If we want to add more computationally intense visitors, this will
become worse.
- From architectural standpoint, the current layout requires copying
visitors, which is conceptually wrong, and can be annoying (e.g. no
unique_ptr on visitors allowed).
The proposed change is a much simpler architecture: the outer loop
processes nodes upwards, and whenever the visitor is added it only
processes current nodes and above, thus guaranteeing termination.

The bindDefault() API of the ProgramState allows setting a default value
for reads from memory regions that were not preceded by writes.
It was used for implementing C++ zeroing constructors (i.e. default constructors
that boil down to setting all fields of the object to 0).
Because differences between zeroing consturctors and other forms of default
initialization have been piling up (in particular, zeroing constructors can be
called multiple times over the same object, probably even at the same offset,
requiring a careful and potentially slow cleanup of previous bindings in the
RegionStore), we split the API in two: bindDefaultInitial() for modeling
initial values and bindDefaultZero() for modeling zeroing constructors.
This fixes a few assertion failures from which the investigation originated.
The imperfect protection from both inability of the RegionStore to support
binding extents and lack of information in ASTRecordLayout has been loosened
because it's, well, imperfect, and it is unclear if it fixing more than it
was breaking.

r326249 wasn't quite enough because we often run out of inlining stack depth
limit and for that reason fail to see the atomics we're looking for.
Add a more straightforward false positive suppression that is based on the name
of the class. I.e. if we're releasing a pointer in a destructor of a "something
shared/intrusive/reference/counting something ptr/pointer something", then any
use-after-free or double-free that occurs later would likely be a false
positive.

The patch fixes a number of bugs related to parameter indexing in
attributes:
* Parameter indices in some attributes (argument_with_type_tag,
pointer_with_type_tag, nonnull, ownership_takes, ownership_holds,
and ownership_returns) are specified in source as one-origin
including any C++ implicit this parameter, were stored as
zero-origin excluding any this parameter, and were erroneously
printing (-ast-print) and confusingly dumping (-ast-dump) as the
stored values.
* For alloc_size, the C++ implicit this parameter was not subtracted
correctly in Sema, leading to assert failures or to silent failures
of __builtin_object_size to compute a value.
* For argument_with_type_tag, pointer_with_type_tag, and
ownership_returns, the C++ implicit this parameter was not added
back to parameter indices in some diagnostics.
This patch fixes the above bugs and aims to prevent similar bugs in
the future by introducing careful mechanisms for handling parameter
indices in attributes. ParamIdx stores a parameter index and is
designed to hide the stored encoding while providing accessors that
require each use (such as printing) to make explicit the encoding that
is needed. Attribute declarations declare parameter index arguments
as [Variadic]ParamIdxArgument, which are exposed as ParamIdx[*]. This
patch rewrites all attribute arguments that are processed by
checkFunctionOrMethodParameterIndex in SemaDeclAttr.cpp to be declared
as [Variadic]ParamIdxArgument. The only exception is xray_log_args's
argument, which is encoded as a count not an index.

Throw away MallocChecker warnings that occur after releasing a pointer within a
destructor (or its callees) after performing C11 atomic fetch_add or fetch_sub
within that destructor (or its callees).
This is an indication that the destructor's class is likely a
reference-counting pointer. The analyzer is not able to understand that the
original reference count is usually large enough to avoid most use-after-frees.
Even when the smart pointer is a local variable, we still have these false
positives that this patch suppresses, because the analyzer doesn't currently
support atomics well enough.
