Having a notion of an actual ProgramPointTag will aid in introspection of the analyzer's behavior.
For example, the GraphViz output of the analyzer will pretty-print the tags in a useful manner.

-Introduce EndOfFunctionNodeBuilder::withCheckerTag to allow it be "specialized" with a
checker tag and not require the checkers to pass a tag.
-For EndOfFunctionNodeBuilder::generateNode, reverse the order of tag/P parameters since
there are actual calls that assume the second parameter is ExplodedNode.

class and to bind the shared value using OpaqueValueExpr. This fixes an
unnoticed problem with deserialization of these expressions where the
deserialized form would lose the vital pointer-equality trait; or rather,
it fixes it because this patch also does the right thing for deserializing
OVEs.
Change OVEs to not be a "temporary object" in the sense that copy elision is
permitted.
This new representation is not totally unawkward to work with, but I think
that's really part and parcel with the semantics we're modelling here. In
particular, it's much easier to fix things like the copy elision bug and to
make the CFG look right.
I've tried to update the analyzer to deal with this in at least some
obvious cases, and I think we get a much better CFG out, but the printing
of OpaqueValueExprs probably needs some work.

-Checkers will be defined in the tablegen file 'Checkers.td'.
-Apart from checkers, we can define checker "packages" that will contain a collection of checkers.
-Checkers can be enabled with -analyzer-checker=<name> and disabled with -analyzer-disable-checker=<name> e.g:
Enable checkers from 'cocoa' and 'corefoundation' packages except the self-initialization checker:
-analyzer-checker=cocoa -analyzer-checker=corefoundation -analyzer-disable-checker=cocoa.SelfInit
-Introduces CheckerManager and CheckerProvider. CheckerProviders get the set of checker names to enable/disable and
register them with the CheckerManager which will be the entry point for all checker-related functionality.
Currently only the self-initialization checker takes advantage of the new mechanism.

The optimization involves eagerly pruning ExplodedNodes from the ExplodedGraph that contain
practically no difference between the predecessor and successor nodes. For example, if
the state is different between a predecessor and a node, the node is left in. Only for
the 'environment' component of the state do we not care if the ExplodedNodes are different.
This paves the way for future optimizations where we can reclaim the environment objects.

Eventually there will also be a lib/StaticAnalyzer/Frontend that will handle initialization and checker registration.
Yet another library to avoid cyclic dependencies between Core and Checkers.
