This is the case where the analyzer tries to print out source locations
for code within a synthesized function body, which of course does not have
a valid source location. The previous fix attempted to do this during
diagnostic path pruning, but some diagnostics have pruning disabled, and
so any diagnostic with a path that goes through a synthesized body will
either hit an assertion or emit invalid output.

We do this by using the "most recent" good location: if a synthesized
function 'A' calls another function 'B', the path notes for the call to 'B'
will be placed at the same location as the path note for calling 'A'.
Similarly, the call to 'A' will have a note saying "Entered call from...",
and now we just don't emit that (since the user doesn't have a body to look
at anyway).
Previously, we were doing this for the "Calling..." notes, but not for the
"Entered call from..." or "Returning to caller". This caused a crash when
the path entered and then exiting a call within a synthesized body.

This is a heuristic intended to greatly reduce the number of false
positives resulting from inlining, particularly inlining of generic,
defensive C++ methods that live in header files. The suppression is
triggered in the cases where we ask to track where a null pointer came
from, and it turns out that the source of the null pointer was an inlined
function call.
This change brings the number of bug reports in LLVM from ~1500 down to
around ~300, a much more manageable number. Yes, some true positives may
be hidden as well, but from what I looked at the vast majority of silenced
reports are false positives, and many of the true issues found by the
analyzer are still reported.
I'm hoping to improve this heuristic further by adding some exceptions
next week (cases in which a bug should still be reported).
