[analyzer] Be less pessimistic about invalidation of global variables
as a result of a call. Problem: Global variables, which come in from system libraries should not be invalidated by all calls. Also, non-system globals should not be invalidated by system calls. Solution: The following solution to invalidation of globals seems flexible enough for taint (does not invalidate stdin) and should not lead to too many false positives. We split globals into 3 classes: * immutable - values are preserved by calls (unless the specific global is passed in as a parameter): A : Most system globals and const scalars * invalidated by functions defined in system headers: B: errno * invalidated by all other functions (note, these functions may in turn contain system calls): B: errno C: all other globals (which are not in A nor B) llvm-svn: 147569
