[docs] Several updates to the Address Sanitizer webpage.

- Added the description of the interceptor suppression.
 - Re-organized a bit: grouped a few things under the Issue Suppression
   section, grouped IOC and leaks under a section, placed symbolication
   info into Symbolizing the Reports section..
 - In supported platforms: "MacOS" -> "OS X"; added "iOS Simulator"
 - Added a paragraph to the Usage section describing when DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
   might need to be used.
 - "attribute((no_sanitize_address))" -> "__attribute__((no_sanitize("address")))"
 - Updated Leak Sanitizer page with most up to date info.

+Initialization order checking
-------------------------------------
+-----------------------------
+
+AddressSanitizer can optionally detect dynamic initialization order problems,
+when initialization of globals defined in one translation unit uses
+globals defined in another translation unit. To enable this check at runtime,
+you should set environment variable
+``ASAN_OPTIONS=check_initialization_order=1``.
+
+Note that this option is not supported on OS X.
+
+Memory leak detection
+---------------------
+
+For more information on leak detector in AddressSanitizer, see
+:doc:`LeakSanitizer`. The leak detection is turned on by default on Linux;
+however, it is not yet supported on other platforms.
+
+Issue Suppression
+=================
+
+AddressSanitizer is not expected to produce false positives. If you see one,
+look again; most likely it is a true positive!
+
+Suppressing Reports in External Libraries
+-----------------------------------------
+Runtime interposition allows AddressSanitizer to find bugs in code that is
+not being recompiled. If you run into an issue in external libraries, we
+recommend immediately reporting it to the library maintainer so that it
+gets addressed. However, you can use the following suppression mechanism
+to unblock yourself and continue on with the testing. This suppression
+mechanism should only be used for suppressing issues in external code; it
+does not work on code recompiled with AddressSanitizer. To suppress errors
+in external libraries, set the ``ASAN_OPTIONS`` environment variable to point
+to a suppression file. You can either specify the full path to the file or the
+path of the file relative to the location of your executable.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    ASAN_OPTIONS=suppressions=MyASan.supp
+
+Use the following format to specify the names of the functions or libraries
+you want to suppress. You can see these in the error report. Remember that
+the narrower the scope of the suppression, the more bugs you will be able to
+catch.
