[analyzer] Add generateErrorNode() APIs to CheckerContext.
The analyzer trims unnecessary nodes from the exploded graph before reporting
path diagnostics. However, in some cases it can trim all nodes (including the
error node), leading to an assertion failure (see
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=24184).
This commit addresses the issue by adding two new APIs to CheckerContext to
explicitly create error nodes. Unless the client provides a custom tag, these
APIs tag the node with the checker's tag -- preventing it from being trimmed.
The generateErrorNode() method creates a sink error node, while
generateNonFatalErrorNode() creates an error node for a path that should
continue being explored.
The intent is that one of these two methods should be used whenever a checker
creates an error node.
This commit updates the checkers to use these APIs. These APIs
(unlike addTransition() and generateSink()) do not take an explicit Pred node.
This is because there are not any error nodes in the checkers that were created
with an explicit different than the default (the CheckerContext's Pred node).
It also changes generateSink() to require state and pred nodes (previously
these were optional) to reduce confusion.
Additionally, there were several cases where checkers did check whether a
generated node could be null; we now explicitly check for null in these places.
This commit also includes a test case written by Ying Yi as part of
http://reviews.llvm.org/D12163 (that patch originally addressed this issue but
was reverted because it introduced false positive regressions).
