[CFG] [analyzer] Add construction context for CXXCtorInitializer.
ClosedPublic

Summary

This patch builds on top of D42672 to add construction contexts for constructors that are initializing CXXCtorInitializer nodes (C::C(int x, struct S s): x(x), s(s) /* <== these little thingines */ {}). Because CXXCtorInitializer is not a Stmt, ConstructionContext needs to be extended to support such contexts. This patch refactors ConstructionContext into a "proper" class with fancy getters (we'd most likely need setters later as well).

I think we should get<> here instead, to clearly crash on incorrect operations.
I also don't understand what dyn_cast does in such cases: doxygen comment says it returns null, yet the code calls the default empty constructor, which I think is even more confusing.

auto *CE?

Could we have an explicit constructor call here?

Yeah, i guess, it'd eventually evolve into a whole class hierarchy of construction contexts with RTTI and stuff. I'm trying to grow it slowly because for now i don't foresee exactly how much of this we'd need.

Still, to me it seems more natural to ask "hey does this thing have a trigger statement", "oh, so maybe it has an initializer", than to enumerate all possible reasons why it may have a trigger statement or an initializer and match for those. It seems easier for callers to use.

the code calls the default empty constructor

This is an empty constructor for T, where T is in our case CXXCtorInitializer *, so it boils down to returning nullptr.

Remove the stack of contexts for now. Which, by the way, i forgot to pop in this patch.

Extra semi-colon here.

This is pretty fragile if you ever add a third kind. Do you want some kind of a 'Kind' you can switch over and get a warning when you add a new one?

Rebase. Add direct tests.

Add an assertion to see if we can always print the construction trigger.

Yep, this is indeed likely that i'd end up adding a whole RTTI of construction contexts.
Added a direct assertion for now.
