22 /// This function de-facto defines a set of transformations that we consider
23 /// safe (in heuristical sense). These transformation if passed a safe value as
24 /// an input should provide a safe value (or an object that provides safe
25 /// values).
26 ///
27 /// For more context see Static Analyzer checkers documentation - specifically
28 /// webkit.UncountedCallArgsChecker checker. Allowed list of transformations:
29 /// - constructors of ref-counted types (including factory methods)
30 /// - getters of ref-counted types
31 /// - member overloaded operators
32 /// - casts
33 /// - unary operators like ``&`` or ``*``
34 ///
35 /// If passed expression is of type uncounted pointer/reference we try to find
36 /// the "origin" of the pointer value.
37 /// Origin can be for example a local variable, nullptr, constant or
38 /// this-pointer.
39 ///
40 /// Certain subexpression nodes represent transformations that don't affect
41 /// where the memory address originates from. We try to traverse such
42 /// subexpressions to get to the relevant child nodes. Whenever we encounter a
43 /// subexpression that either can't be ignored, we don't model its semantics or
44 /// that has multiple children we stop.
45 ///
46 /// \p E is an expression of uncounted pointer/reference type.
47 /// If \p StopAtFirstRefCountedObj is true and we encounter a subexpression that
48 /// represents ref-counted object during the traversal we return relevant
49 /// sub-expression and true.
50 ///
51 /// \returns subexpression that we traversed to and if \p
52 /// StopAtFirstRefCountedObj is true we also return whether we stopped early.
