When searching for stores and creating corresponding notes, the
analyzer is more specific about the target region of the store
as opposed to the stored value. While this description was tweaked
for constant and undefined values, it lacked in the most general
case of symbolic values.
This patch tries to find a memory region, where this value is stored,
to use it as a better alias for the value.

When BugReporter tracks C++ references involved in a null pointer violation, we
want to differentiate between a null reference and a reference to a null pointer. In the
first case, we want to track the region for the reference location; in the second, we want
to track the null pointer.
In addition, the core creates CXXTempObjectRegion to represent the location of the
C++ reference, so teach FindLastStoreBRVisitor about it.
This helps null pointer suppression to kick in.

Fixes PR15358 and <rdar://problem/13295437>.
Along the way, shorten path diagnostics that say "Variable 'x'" to just
be "'x'". By the context, it is obvious that we have a variable,
and so this just consumes text space.

path notes for cases where a value may be assumed to be null, etc.
Instead of having redundant diagnostics, do a pass over the generated
PathDiagnostic pieces and remove notes from TrackConstraintBRVisitor
that are already covered by ConditionBRVisitor, whose notes tend
to be better.

implicit pointer-to-boolean conversions in condition expressions. This would
result in inconsistent diagnostic emission between C and C++.
A consequence of this is now ConditionBRVisitor and TrackConstraintBRVisitor may
emit redundant diagnostics, for example:
"Assuming pointer value is null" (TrackConstraintBRVisitor)
"Assuming 'p' is null" (ConditionBRVisitor)
We need to reconcile the two, and perhaps prefer one over the other in some
cases.
