[CFL-AA] Update for handling of globals and more tests

We used to return PartialAlias if *either* variable being queried interacted
with arguments or globals. AFAICT, we can change this to only returning
MayAlias iff *both* variables being queried interacted with arguments or
globals.

Also, adding some basic functionality tests: some basic IPA tests, checking
that we give conservative responses with arguments/globals thrown in the mix,
and ensuring that we trace values through stores and loads.

Note that saying that 'x' interacted with arguments or globals means that the
Attributes of the StratifiedSet that 'x' belongs to has any bits set.

Patch by George Burgess IV, thanks!
