...but don't yet migrate over the existing plist tests. Some of these
would be trivial to migrate; others could use a bit of inspection first.
In any case, though, the new edge algorithm seems to have proven itself,
and we'd like more coverage (and more usage) of it going forwards.

Before:
1. Calling 'foo'
2. Doing something interesting
3. Returning from 'foo'
4. Some kind of error here
After:
1. Calling 'foo'
2. Doing something interesting
3. Returning from 'foo'
4. Some kind of error here
The location of the note is already in the caller, not the callee, so this
just brings the "depth" attribute in line with that.
This only affects plist diagnostic consumers (i.e. Xcode). It's necessary
for Xcode to associate the control flow arrows with the right stack frame.

Consider this case:
int *p = 0;
p = getPointerThatMayBeNull();
*p = 1;
If we inline 'getPointerThatMayBeNull', we might know that the value of 'p'
is NULL, and thus emit a null pointer dereference report. However, we
usually want to suppress such warnings as error paths, and we do so by using
FindLastStoreBRVisitor to see where the NULL came from. In this case, though,
because 'p' was NULL both before and after the assignment, the visitor
would decide that the "last store" was the initialization, not the
re-assignment.
This commit changes FindLastStoreBRVisitor to consider all PostStore nodes
that assign to this region. This still won't catches changes made directly
by checkers if they re-assign the same value, but it does handle the common
case in user-written code and will trigger ReturnVisitor's suppression
machinery as expected.

Fixes PR15358 and <rdar://problem/13295437>.
Along the way, shorten path diagnostics that say "Variable 'x'" to just
be "'x'". By the context, it is obvious that we have a variable,
and so this just consumes text space.

This heuristic addresses the case when a pointer (or ref) is passed
to a function, which initializes the variable (or sets it to something
other than '0'). On the branch where the inlined function does not
set the value, we report use of undefined value (or NULL pointer
dereference). The access happens in the caller and the path
through the callee would get pruned away with regular path pruning. To
solve this issue, we previously disabled diagnostic pruning completely
on undefined and null pointer dereference checks, which entailed very
verbose diagnostics in most cases. Furthermore, not all of the
undef value checks had the diagnostic pruning disabled.
This patch implements the following heuristic: if we pass a pointer (or
ref) to the region (on which the error is reported) into a function and
it's value is either undef or 'NULL' (and is a pointer), do not prune
the function.
