[clang][dataflow] Add an early-out to `flowConditionImplies()` / `flowConditionAllows()`. (#78172)
This saves having to assemble the set of constraints and run the SAT solver in the trivial case of `flowConditionImplies(true)` or `flowConditionAllows(false)`. This is an update / reland of my previous reverted [#77453](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/77453). That PR contained a logic bug -- the early-out for `flowConditionAllows()` was wrong because my intuition about the logic was wrong. (In particular, note that `flowConditionImplies(F)` does not imply `flowConditionAllows(F)`, even though this may run counter to intuition.) I've now done what I should have done on the first iteration and added more tests. These pass both with and without my early-outs. This patch is a performance win on the benchmarks for the Crubit nullability checker, except for one slight regression on a relatively short benchmark: ``` name old cpu/op new cpu/op delta BM_PointerAnalysisCopyPointer 68.5µs ± 7% 67.6µs ± 4% ~ (p=0.159 n=18+19) BM_PointerAnalysisIntLoop 173µs ± 3% 162µs ± 4% -6.40% (p=0.000 n=19+20) BM_PointerAnalysisPointerLoop 307µs ± 2% 312µs ± 4% +1.56% (p=0.013 n=18+20) BM_PointerAnalysisBranch 199µs ± 4% 181µs ± 4% -8.81% (p=0.000 n=20+20) BM_PointerAnalysisLoopAndBranch 503µs ± 3% 508µs ± 2% ~ (p=0.081 n=18+19) BM_PointerAnalysisTwoLoops 304µs ± 4% 286µs ± 2% -6.04% (p=0.000 n=19+20) BM_PointerAnalysisJoinFilePath 4.78ms ± 3% 4.54ms ± 4% -4.97% (p=0.000 n=20+20) BM_PointerAnalysisCallInLoop 3.05ms ± 3% 2.90ms ± 4% -5.05% (p=0.000 n=19+20) ``` When running clang-tidy on real-world code, the results are less clear. In three runs, averaged, on an arbitrarily chosen input file, I get 11.60 s of user time without this patch and 11.40 s with it, though with considerable measurement noise (I'm seeing up to 0.2 s of variation between runs). Still, this is a very simple change, and it is a clear win in benchmarks, so I think it is worth making.
