BugVisitor DiagnosticPieces.
When checkers create a DiagnosticPieceEvent, they can supply an extra
string, which will be concatenated with the call exit message for every
call on the stack between the diagnostic event and the final bug report.
(This is a simple version, which could be/will be further enhanced.)
For example, this is used in Malloc checker to produce the ",
which allocated memory" in the following example:
static char *malloc_wrapper() { // 2. Entered call from 'use'
return malloc(12); // 3. Memory is allocated
}
void use() {
char *v;
v = malloc_wrapper(); // 1. Calling 'malloc_wrappers'
// 4. Returning from 'malloc_wrapper', which allocated memory
} // 5. Memory is never released; potential
memory leak

Essentially, a bug centers around a story for various symbols and regions. We should only include
the path diagnostic events that relate to those symbols and regions.
The pruning is done by associating a set of interesting symbols and regions with a BugReporter, which
can be modified at BugReport creation or by BugReporterVisitors.
This patch reduces the diagnostics emitted in several of our test cases. I've vetted these as
having desired behavior. The only regression is a missing null check diagnostic for the return
value of realloc() in test/Analysis/malloc-plist.c. This will require some investigation to fix,
and I have added a FIXME to the test case.

piece can always be generated.
The default end of diagnostic path piece was failing to generate on a
BlockEdge that was outgoing from a basic block without a terminator,
resulting in a very simple diagnostic being rendered (ex: no path
highlighting or custom visitors). Reuse another function, which is
essentially doing the same thing and correct it not to fail when a block
has no terminator.
