More generally, this adds a new configuration option 'c++-inlining', which
controls which C++ member functions can be considered for inlining. This
uses the new -analyzer-config table, so the cc1 arguments will look like this:
... -analyzer-config c++-inlining=[none|methods|constructors|destructors]
Note that each mode implies that all the previous member function kinds
will be inlined as well; it doesn't make sense to inline destructors
without inlining constructors, for example.
The default mode is 'methods'.

Because the CXXNewExpr appears after the CXXConstructExpr in the CFG, we don't
actually have the correct region to construct into at the time we decide
whether or not to inline. The long-term fix (discussed in PR12014) might be to
introduce a new CFG node (CFGAllocator) that appears before the constructor.

- provide useful indentation
- call out caveats and notes more explictly
Stylistically, I prefer the document talk in 3rd person instead of "we". The
term "we" is unambiguous, and sometimes refers to different things. I've passed
over the existing paragraphs and made them speak more about specific entities
that compose the analyzer and what they do (e.g., ExprEngine) instead of "we"
referring to the analyzer.
Further, I have substituted some vague concepts such as "state" or "program
state" and replaced them with their precise implementation counterparts (e.g.,
ProgramState). This makes the document more technically precise throughout the
entire narrative, which would sometimes use vague terms and other times precise
terms.
I've placed several comments within the document, which can be seen with
***TMK/COMMENT***, which indicate places that need to be enhanced or clarified,
or called out as questions about intended bheavior.

Under -analyzer-ipa=basic-inlining, only C functions, blocks, and C++ static
member functions are inlined -- essentially, the calls that behave like simple
C function calls. This is essentially the behavior in Xcode 4.4.
C++ support still has some rough edges, and we don't want users to be worried
about them if they download and run their own checker. (In particular, the
massive number of false positives for analyzing LLVM comes from inlining
defensively-written code in contexts where more aggressive assumptions are
implicitly made. This problem is not unique to C++, but it is exacerbated by
the higher proportion of code that lives in header files in C++.)
The eventual goal is to be comfortable enough with C++ support (and simple
Objective-C support) to advance to -analyzer-ipa=inlining as the default
behavior. See the IPA design notes for more details.

First, when synthesizing an explicitly strong/retain/copy property
of Class type, don't pretend during compatibility checking that the
property is actually assign. Instead, resolve incompatibilities
by secretly changing the type of *implicitly* __unsafe_unretained
Class ivars to be strong. This is moderately evil but better than
what we were doing.
Second, when synthesizing the setter for a strong property of
non-retainable type, be sure to use objc_setProperty. This is
possible when the property is decorated with the NSObject
attribute. This is an ugly, ugly corner of the language, and
we probably ought to deprecate it.

This may turn out to be a controversial change, due to string literals being
uniqued at link time, but Apple's docs only say "The compiler makes such
object constants unique on a per-module basis..."[1] without actually saying
what a "module" is. (It's not a clang module.) Furthermore, this uniqueness
guarantee often can't be guaranteed once the string has been passed through
framework code.
If this does turn out very controversial, we could downgrade this to a
DefaultError warning for strings, and leave it as a true Error for other
kinds of literals.

If you don't see something that should be mentioned, feel free to add
a note (or even a nicely written section) about it! I haven't really
done the static analyzer justice here as I don't really know what the
significant changes are other than mile-high stuff like watching it grow
C++ support and a more robust CFG. I also worry I've missed important
stuff in the Objective-C world.
If you see something that isn't worth mentioning, just delete it. I know
there are several things like this. I plan to prune the list down as
I flesh things out.
If you're name or email is on a bullet, I'll likely be sending you an
email asking for any input on that subject. For many of these I can fill
in something generic, and I'll just want you to give it a once-over.
However, if you have time, feel free to just write the blurb yourself
