[alpha.webkit.RetainPtrCtorAdoptChecker] An assortment of small enhancements (#135329)

This PR implements various small enhancements to
alpha.webkit.RetainPtrCtorAdoptChecker:
 - Detect leaks from [[X alloc] init] when ARC is disabled.
 - Detect leaks from calling Create, Copy, and other +1 CF functions.
 - Recognize [allocX() init] pattern where allocX is a C/C++ function.
 - Recognize _init in addition to init as an init function.
 - Recognize [[[X alloc] init] autorelease].
 - Recognize CFBridgingRelease.
 - Support CF_RETRUNS_RETAINED on out arguments of a C function.
- Support returning +1 object in Create, Copy, and other +1 functions or
+1 selectors.
 - Support variadic Create, Copy, and other +1 C/C++ functions.

To make these enhancements, this PR introduces new visit functions for
ObjCMessageExpr, ReturnStmt, VarDecl, and BinaryOperator. These
functions look for a specific construct mentioned above and adds an
expression such as [[X alloc] init] or CreateX to a DenseSet
CreateOrCopyFnCall when the expression does not result in leaks. When
the code to detect leaks such as the one in visitObjCMessageExpr later
encounters this expression, it can bail out early if the expression is
in the set.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
