This file defines a simple ARC-aware AliasAnalysis using special knowledge of Objective C to enhance other optimization passes which rely on the Alias Analysis infrastructure.

WARNING: This file knows about certain library functions. It recognizes them by name, and hardwires knowledge of their semantics.

WARNING: This file knows about how certain Objective-C library functions are used. Naive LLVM IR transformations which would otherwise be behavior-preserving may break these assumptions.

TODO: Theoretically we could check for dependencies between objc_* calls and FMRB_OnlyAccessesArgumentPointees calls or other well-behaved calls.

TODO: The calls here to AAResultBase member functions are all effectively no-ops that just return a conservative result. The original intent was to chain to another analysis for a recursive query, but this was lost in a refactor. These should instead be rephrased in terms of queries to AAQI.AAR.
