0.9.2

New Queries

• Added a new query, cpp/use-of-unique-pointer-after-lifetime-ends, to detect uses of the contents unique pointers that will be destroyed immediately.
• The cpp/incorrectly-checked-scanf query has been added. This finds results where the return value of scanf is not checked correctly. Some of these were previously found by cpp/missing-check-scanf and will no longer be reported there.

Minor Analysis Improvements

• The cpp/badly-bounded-write query could report false positives when a pointer was first initialized with a literal and later assigned a dynamically allocated array. These false positives now no longer occur.
