When searching for stores and creating corresponding notes, the
analyzer is more specific about the target region of the store
as opposed to the stored value. While this description was tweaked
for constant and undefined values, it lacked in the most general
case of symbolic values.
This patch tries to find a memory region, where this value is stored,
to use it as a better alias for the value.

iAs listed in the summary D77846, we have 5 different categories of bugs we're
checking for in CallAndMessage. I think the documentation placed in the code
explains my thought process behind my decisions quite well.
A non-obvious change I had here is removing the entry for
CallAndMessageUnInitRefArg. In fact, I removed the CheckerNameRef typed field
back in D77845 (it was dead code), so that checker didn't really exist in any
meaningful way anyways.

Summary:
The following code snippet taken from D64271#1572188 has an issue: namely,
because `flag`'s value isn't undef or a concrete int, it isn't being tracked.
int flag;
bool coin();
void foo() {
flag = coin();
}
void test() {
int *x = 0;
int local_flag;
flag = 1;
foo();
local_flag = flag;
if (local_flag)
x = new int;
foo();
local_flag = flag;
if (local_flag)
*x = 5;
}
This, in my opinion, makes no sense, other values may be interesting too.

Passing a pointer to an uninitialized memory buffer is normally okay,
but if the function is declared to take a pointer-to-const then it's
very unlikely it will be modifying the buffer. In this case the analyzer
should warn that there will likely be a read of uninitialized memory.
This doesn't check all elements of an array, only the first one.
It also doesn't yet check Objective-C methods, only C functions and
C++ methods.
This is controlled by a new check: alpha.core.CallAndMessageUnInitRefArg.
