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.
Tested on clang-tidy.

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.

In most cases using
`N->getState()->getSVal(E, N->getLocationContext())`

inconsistent location context is used.
This patch introduces a helper on an exploded node, and ensures
consistent usage of either `ExplodedNode::getSVal` or
`CheckContext::getSVal` across the codebase.

The purpose of these changes is to simplify introduction of definition files
for the three hierarchies.
1. For every sub-class C of these classes, its kind in the relevant enumeration
is changed to "CKind" (or C##Kind in preprocessor-ish terms), eg:
MemRegionKind -> MemRegionValKind
RegionValueKind -> SymbolRegionValueKind
CastSymbolKind -> SymbolCastKind
SymIntKind -> SymIntExprKind
2. MemSpaceRegion used to be inconsistently used as both an abstract base and
a particular region. This region class is now an abstract base and no longer
occupies GenericMemSpaceRegionKind. Instead, a new class, CodeSpaceRegion,
is introduced for handling the unique use case for MemSpaceRegion as
"the generic memory space" (when it represents a memory space that holds all
executable code).
3. BEG_ prefixes in memory region kind ranges are renamed to BEGIN_ for
consisitency with symbol kind ranges.
4. FunctionTextRegion and BlockTextRegion are renamed to FunctionCodeRegion and
BlockCodeRegion, respectively. The term 'code' is less jargony than 'text' and
we already refer to BlockTextRegion as a 'code region' in BlockDataRegion.

The analyzer assumes that system functions will not free memory or modify the
arguments in other ways, so we assume that arguments do not escape when
those are called. However, this may lead to false positive leak errors. For
example, in code like this where the pointers added to the rb_tree are freed
later on:
struct alarm_event *e = calloc(1, sizeof(*e));
<snip>
rb_tree_insert_node(&alarm_tree, e);
Add a heuristic to assume that calls to system functions taking void*
arguments allow for pointer escape.

Currently realloc(ptr, 0) is treated as free() which seems to be not correct. C
standard (N1570) establishes equivalent behavior for malloc(0) and realloc(ptr,
0): "7.22.3 Memory management functions calloc, malloc, realloc: If the size of
the space requested is zero, the behavior is implementation-defined: either a
null pointer is returned, or the behavior is as if the size were some nonzero
value, except that the returned pointer shall not be used to access an object."
The patch equalizes the processing of malloc(0) and realloc(ptr,0). The patch
also enables unix.Malloc checker to detect references to zero-allocated memory
returned by realloc(ptr,0) ("Use of zero-allocated memory" warning).

The analyzer trims unnecessary nodes from the exploded graph before reporting
path diagnostics. However, in some cases it can trim all nodes (including the
error node), leading to an assertion failure (see
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=24184).
This commit addresses the issue by adding two new APIs to CheckerContext to
explicitly create error nodes. Unless the client provides a custom tag, these
APIs tag the node with the checker's tag -- preventing it from being trimmed.
The generateErrorNode() method creates a sink error node, while
generateNonFatalErrorNode() creates an error node for a path that should
continue being explored.
The intent is that one of these two methods should be used whenever a checker
creates an error node.
This commit updates the checkers to use these APIs. These APIs
(unlike addTransition() and generateSink()) do not take an explicit Pred node.
This is because there are not any error nodes in the checkers that were created
with an explicit different than the default (the CheckerContext's Pred node).
It also changes generateSink() to require state and pred nodes (previously
these were optional) to reduce confusion.
Additionally, there were several cases where checkers did check whether a
generated node could be null; we now explicitly check for null in these places.
This commit also includes a test case written by Ying Yi as part of
http://reviews.llvm.org/D12163 (that patch originally addressed this issue but
was reverted because it introduced false positive regressions).
