With opaque pointers, we cannot use the pointer element type to
determine the LocationSize for the AA query. Instead, -aa-eval
tests are now required to have an explicit load or store for any
pointer they want to compute alias results for, and the load/store
types are used to determine the location size.
This may affect ordering of results, and sorting within one result,
as the type is not considered part of the sorted string anymore.
To somewhat minimize the churn, printing still uses faux typed
pointer notation.
As it turns out, modref queries are broken with CFLAA. Specifically,
the data source we were using for determining modref behaviors
explicitly ignores operations on non-pointer values. So, it wouldn't
note e.g. storing an i32 to an i32* (or loading an i64 from an i64*).
It also ignores external function calls, rather than acting
conservatively for them.
(N.B. These operations, where necessary, *are* tracked by CFLAA; we just
use a different mechanism to do so. Said mechanism is relatively
imprecise, so it's unlikely that we can provide reasonably good modref
answers with it as implemented.)

This patch lets CFLAnders respond to mod-ref queries. It also includes
a small bugfix to CFLSteens.

This patch adds function summary support to CFLAnders. It also comes
with a lot of tests! Woohoo!
