This patch adds hashes to the plist and html output to be able to identfy bugs
for suppressing false positives or diff results against a baseline. This hash
aims to be resilient for code evolution and is usable to identify bugs in two
different snapshots of the same software. One missing piece however is a
permanent unique identifier of the checker that produces the warning. Once that
issue is resolved, the hashes generated are going to change. Until that point
this feature is marked experimental, but it is suitable for early adoption.

to the plist output. This check_name field does not guaranteed to be the
same as the name of the checker in the future.

...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.

The 2 functions were computing the same location using different logic (each one had edge case bugs that the other
one did not). Refactor them to rely on the same logic.
The location of the warning reported in text/command line output format will now match that of the plist file.
There is one change in the plist output as well. When reporting an error on a BinaryOperator, we use the location of the
operator instead of the beginning of the BinaryOperator expression. This matches our output on command line and
looks better in most cases.

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.

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 required more changes than I originally expected:
- ObjCIvarRegion implements "canPrintPretty" et al
- DereferenceChecker indicates the null pointer source is an ivar
- bugreporter::trackNullOrUndefValue() uses an alternate algorithm
to compute the location region to track by scouring the ExplodedGraph.
This allows us to get the actual MemRegion for variables, ivars,
fields, etc. We only hand construct a VarRegion for C++ references.
- ExplodedGraph no longer drops nodes for expressions that are marked
'lvalue'. This is to facilitate the logic in the previous bullet.
This may lead to a slight increase in size in the ExplodedGraph,
which I have not measured, but it is likely not to be a big deal.
I have validated each of the changed plist output.

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.
