constructor _initializers_. This patch adds the initializers to the set of

The comments describing the API for analysis `widen` and the environment `widen`
were overly strict in the preconditions they assumed for the operation. In
particular, both assumed that the previous value preceded the current value in
the relevant ordering. However, that's not generally how widen operators work
and widening itself can violate this property. That is, when the previous value
is the result of a widening, it can easily be "greater" than the current value.
This patch updates the comments to accurately reflect the expectations.

Currently, the API for a model's custom value comparison returns a
boolean. Therefore, models cannot distinguish between situations where the
values are recognized by the model and different and those where the values are
just not recognized. This patch changes the return value to a tri-valued enum,
allowing models to express "don't know".
This patch is essentially a NFC -- no practical differences result from this
change in this patch. But, it prepares for future patches (particularly,
upcoming patches for widening) which will take advantage of the new flexibility.

This also requires replacing the `DeclCtx` field on `Environment` with a `CallString` field that contains a vector of decl contexts, to ensure that the analysis doesn't try to analyze recursive or mutually recursive calls (which would result in a crash, due to the way we handle `StorageLocation`s).

This patch enables context-sensitive analysis of multiple different calls to the same function (see the `ContextSensitiveSetBothTrueAndFalse` example in the `TransferTest` suite) by replacing the `Environment` copy-assignment with a call to the new `popCall` method, which `std::move`s some fields but specifically does not move `DeclToLoc` and `ExprToLoc` from the callee back to the caller.
To enable this, the `StorageLocation` for a given parameter needs to be stable across different calls to the same function, so this patch also improves the modeling of parameter initialization, using `ReferenceValue` when necessary (for arguments passed by reference).
This approach explicitly does not work for recursive calls, because we currently only plan to use this context-sensitive machinery to support specialized analysis models we write, not analysis of arbitrary callees.

This patch adds initial support for context-sensitive analysis of simple functions whose definition is available in the translation unit, guarded by the `ContextSensitive` flag in the new `TransferOptions` struct. When this option is true, the `VisitCallExpr` case in the builtin transfer function has a fallthrough case which checks for a direct callee with a body. In that case, it constructs a CFG from that callee body, uses the new `pushCall` method on the `Environment` to make an environment to analyze the callee, and then calls `runDataflowAnalysis` with a `NoopAnalysis` (disabling context-sensitive analysis on that sub-analysis, to avoid problems with recursion). After the sub-analysis completes, the `Environment` from its exit block is simply assigned back to the environment at the callsite.
The `pushCall` method (which currently only supports non-method functions with some restrictions) maps the `SourceLocation`s for all the parameters to the existing source locations for the corresponding arguments from the callsite.
This patch adds a few tests to check that this context-sensitive analysis works on simple functions. More sophisticated functionality will be added later; the most important next step is to explicitly model context in some fields of the `DataflowAnalysisContext` class, as mentioned in a `FIXME` comment in the `pushCall` implementation.

The API for `AggregateStorageLocation` does not allow for missing fields (it asserts). Therefore, it is incorrect to filter out any fields at location-creation time which may be accessed by the code. Currently, we limit filtering to private, base-calss fields on the assumption that those can never be accessed. However, `friend` declarations can invalidate that assumption, thereby breaking our invariants.
This patch removes said field filtering to avoid violating the invariant of "no missing fields" for `AggregateStorageLocation`.

This patch changes `Environment::join`, in the case that two values at the same
location are not (pointer) equal, to structurally compare indirection values
(pointers and references) for equivalence (that is, equivalent pointees) before
resorting to merging.
This change makes join consistent with equivalence, which also performs
structural comparison. It also fixes a bug where the values are `ReferenceValue`
but the merge creates a non-reference value. This case arises when the
`ReferenceValue`s were created to represent an lvalue, so the "reference-ness"
is not reflected in the type. In this case, the pointees will always be
equivalent, because lvalues at the same code location point to the location of a
fixed declaration, whose location is itself stable across blocks.
We were unable to reproduce a unit test for this latter bug, but have verified
the fix in the context of a larger piece of code that triggers the bug.

The current implementation mutates the environment as it performs the
join. However, that interferes with the call to the model's `merge` operation,
which can modify `MergedEnv`. Since any modifications are assumed to apply to
the post-join environment, providing the same environment for both is
incorrect. This mismatch is a particular concern for joining the flow
conditions, where modifications in the old environment may not be propagated to
the new one.

Currently, when the framework is used with an analysis that does not override
`compareEquivalent`, it does not terminate for most loops. The root cause is the
interaction of (the default implementation of) environment comparison
(`compareEquivalent`) and the means by which locations and values are
allocated. Specifically, the creation of certain values (including: reference
and pointer values; merged values) results in allocations of fresh locations in
the environment. As a result, analysis of even trivial loop bodies produces
different (if isomorphic) environments, on identical inputs. At the same time,
the default analysis relies on strict equality (versus some relaxed notion of
equivalence). Together, when the analysis compares these isomorphic, yet
unequal, environments, to determine whether the successors of the given block
need to be (re)processed, the result is invariably "yes", thus preventing loop
analysis from reaching a fixed point.
There are many possible solutions to this problem, including equivalence that is
less than strict pointer equality (like structural equivalence) and/or the
introduction of an explicit widening operation. However, these solutions will
require care to be implemented correctly. While a high priority, it seems more
urgent that we fix the current default implentation to allow
termination. Therefore, this patch proposes, essentially, to change the default
comparison to trivally equate any two values. As a result, we can say precisely
that the analysis will process the loop exactly twice -- once to establish an
initial result state and the second to produce an updated result which will
(always) compare equal to the previous. While clearly unsound -- we are not
reaching a fix point of the transfer function, in practice, this level of
analysis will find many practical issues where a single iteration of the loop
impacts abstract program state.
Note, however, that the change to the default `merge` operation does not affect
soundness, because the framework already produces a fresh (sound) abstraction of
the value when the two values are distinct. The previous setting was overly
conservative.
