[analyzer] Add support for escape of const pointers and use it to allow “newed” pointers to escape
Add a new callback that notifies checkers when a const pointer escapes. Currently, this only works for const pointers passed as a top level parameter into a function. We need to differentiate the const pointers escape from regular escape since the content pointed by const pointer will not change; if it’s a file handle, a file cannot be closed; but delete is allowed on const pointers. This should suppress several false positives reported by the NewDelete checker on llvm codebase. llvm-svn: 178310
