necesary to implement the new behavior.

Functions can now declare what state the consumable type the are returning will
be in. This is then used on the caller side and checked on the callee side.
Constructors now use this attribute instead of the 'consumes' attribute.

Adds the 'consumable' attribute that can be attached to classes. This replaces
the previous method of scanning a class's methods to see if any of them have
consumed analysis attributes attached to them. If consumed analysis attributes
are attached to methods of a class that isn't marked 'consumable' a warning
is generated.

Add the annotations and code needed to support a basic 'consumed' analysis.
Summary:
This new analysis is based on academic literature on linear types. It tracks
the state of a value, either as unconsumed, consumed, or unknown. Methods are
then annotated as CallableWhenUnconsumed, and when an annotated method is
called while the value is in the 'consumed' state a warning is issued. A value
may be tested in the conditional statement of an if-statement; when this occurs
we know the state of the value in the different branches, and this information
is added to our analysis. The code is still highly experimental, and the names
of annotations or the algorithm may be subject to change.
