[ubsan] Improve diagnostics for return value checks (clang)
This patch makes ubsan's nonnull return value diagnostics more precise, which makes the diagnostics more useful when there are multiple return statements in a function. Example: 1 |__attribute__((returns_nonnull)) char *foo() { 2 | if (...) { 3 | return expr_which_might_evaluate_to_null(); 4 | } else { 5 | return another_expr_which_might_evaluate_to_null(); 6 | } 7 |} // <- The current diagnostic always points here! runtime error: Null returned from Line 7, Column 2! With this patch, the diagnostic would point to either Line 3, Column 5 or Line 5, Column 5. This is done by emitting source location metadata for each return statement in a sanitized function. The runtime is passed a pointer to the appropriate metadata so that it can prepare and deduplicate reports.
