Filipe Cabecinhas 4ba5817b8b ASan+operator new[]: Add an option for more thorough operator new[] cookie poisoning
Summary:
Right now clang is skipping array cookie poisoning for any operator
new[] which is not part of the set of replaceable global allocation
functions.

This commit adds a flag to tell clang to poison all operator new[]
cookies.

A previous review was poisoning all array cookies unconditionally, but
there is an edge case which would stop working under ASan (a custom
operator new[] saves whatever pointer it returned, and then accesses
it).

This newer revision adds a command line argument to toggle this feature.

// C Language Family Front-end
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//

Welcome to Clang.  This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages
(C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM
compiler infrastructure project.

Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things
beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of
different source-level tools.  One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.

If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read
the relevant web sites.  Here are some pointers:
