D105819 Added NoOwnershipChangeVisitor, but it is only registered when an
off-by-default, hidden checker option was enabled. The reason behind this was
that it grossly overestimated the set of functions that really needed a note:
std::string getTrainName(const Train *T) {
return T->name;
} // note: Retuning without changing the ownership of or deallocating memory
// Umm... I mean duh? Nor would I expect this function to do anything like that...
void foo() {
Train *T = new Train("Land Plane");
print(getTrainName(T)); // note: calling getTrainName / returning from getTrainName
} // warn: Memory leak
This patch adds a heuristic that guesses that any function that has an explicit
operator delete call could have be responsible for deallocating the memory that
ended up leaking. This is waaaay too conservative (see the TODOs in the new
function), but it safer to err on the side of too little than too much, and
would allow us to enable the option by default *now*, and add refinements
one-by-one.

We should not assume that the size of the //flexible array member// field has
a single element, because in some cases they use it as a fallback for not
having the //zero-length array// language extension.
In this case, the analyzer should return `Unknown` as the extent of the field
instead.

The previous behavior was to deduplicate reports based on md5 of the
html file. This algorithm might have worked originally but right now
HTML reports contain information rich enough to make them virtually
always distinct which breaks deduplication entirely.
The new strategy is to (finally) take advantage of IssueHash - the
stable report identifier provided by clang that is the same if and only if
the reports are duplicates of each other.
Additionally, scan-build no longer performs deduplication on its own.
Instead, the report file name is now based on the issue hash,
and clang instances will silently refuse to produce a new html file
when a duplicate already exists. This eliminates the problem entirely.
The '-analyzer-config stable-report-filename' option is deprecated
because report filenames are no longer unstable. A new option is
introduced, '-analyzer-config verbose-report-filename', to produce
verbose file names that look similar to the old "stable" file names.
The old option acts as an alias to the new option.

This is a rather common feedback we get from out leak checkers: bug reports are
really short, and are contain barely any usable information on what the analyzer
did to conclude that a leak actually happened.
This happens because of our bug report minimizing effort. We construct bug
reports by inspecting the ExplodedNodes that lead to the error from the bottom
up (from the error node all the way to the root of the exploded graph), and mark
entities that were the cause of a bug, or have interacted with it as
interesting. In order to make the bug report a bit less verbose, whenever we
find an entire function call (from CallEnter to CallExitEnd) that didn't talk
about any interesting entity, we prune it (click here for more info on bug
report generation). Even if the event to highlight is exactly this lack of
interaction with interesting entities.
D105553 generalized the visitor that creates notes for these cases. This patch
adds a new kind of NoStateChangeVisitor that leaves notes in functions that
took a piece of dynamically allocated memory that later leaked as parameter,
and didn't change its ownership status.

The default value of 100 makes the analysis slow. Projects of considerable

As per http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/cfe-dev/2019-August/063215.html, lets get rid of this option.
It presents 2 issues that have bugged me for years now:
* OSObject is NOT a boolean option. It in fact has 3 states:
* osx.OSObjectRetainCount is enabled but OSObject it set to false: RetainCount
regards the option as disabled.
* sx.OSObjectRetainCount is enabled and OSObject it set to true: RetainCount
regards the option as enabled.
* osx.OSObjectRetainCount is disabled: RetainCount regards the option as
disabled.
* The hack involves directly modifying AnalyzerOptions::ConfigTable, which
shouldn't even be public in the first place.
This still isn't really ideal, because it would be better to preserve the option
and remove the checker (we want visible checkers to be associated with
diagnostics, and hidden options like this one to be associated with changing how
the modeling is done), but backwards compatibility is an issue.

To give some historic insight though, we used to not list **all**

ones specified on the command line. However, past this change (and
arguably even before that) this line makes little sense.
There is an argument to be made against the entirety of

found or not. In the future it can be extended to only return success if
container modeling is also extended in a way the it keeps track of

Enables the users to specify an optional flag which would warn for more dead

It could be used to "disable" core checkers, so they model the analysis as
before, just if some of them are too noisy it prevents to emit reports.
This patch also adds support for that new option to the scan-build.

This patch is a major part of my GSoC project, aimed to improve the bug
reports of the analyzer.
TL;DR: Help the analyzer understand that some conditions are important,
and should be explained better. If an CFGBlock is a control dependency
of a block where an expression value is tracked, explain the condition
expression better by tracking it.
if (A) // let's explain why we believe A to be true
10 / x; // division by zero
This is an experimental feature, and can be enabled by the
off-by-default analyzer configuration "track-conditions".
In detail:
This idea was inspired by the program slicing algorithm. Essentially,
two things are used to produce a program slice (a subset of the program
relevant to a (statement, variable) pair): data and control
dependencies. The bug path (the linear path in the ExplodedGraph that leads
from the beginning of the analysis to the error node) enables to
analyzer to argue about data dependencies with relative ease.
Control dependencies are a different slice of the cake entirely.
Just because we reached a branch during symbolic execution, it
doesn't mean that that particular branch has any effect on whether the
bug would've occured. This means that we can't simply rely on the bug
path to gather control dependencies.
In previous patches, LLVM's IDFCalculator, which works on a control flow
graph rather than the ExplodedGraph was generalized to solve this issue.
We use this information to heuristically guess that the value of a tracked
expression depends greatly on it's control dependencies, and start
tracking them as well.
After plenty of evaluations this was seen as great idea, but still
lacking refinements (we should have different descriptions about a
conditions value), hence it's off-by-default.

In earlier patches regarding AnalyzerOptions, a lot of effort went into
gathering all config options, and changing the interface so that potential
misuse can be eliminited.
Up until this point, AnalyzerOptions only evaluated an option when it was
querried. For example, if we had a "-no-false-positives" flag, AnalyzerOptions
would store an Optional field for it that would be None up until somewhere in
the code until the flag's getter function is called.
However, now that we're confident that we've gathered all configs, we can
evaluate off of them before analysis, so we can emit a error on invalid input
even if that prticular flag will not matter in that particular run of the
analyzer. Another very big benefit of this is that debug.ConfigDumper will now
show the value of all configs every single time.
Also, almost all options related class have a similar interface, so uniformity
is also a benefit.
The implementation for errors on invalid input will be commited shorty.

- "region-store-small-struct-limit" has a proper getter now.
