This commit adds a new model interface that describes the known side effects (or lack thereof) of a library function. Does it read memory, does it write memory, and do any of its parameters escape? Initially, we have models for just two Standard Library functions: `std::move` and `std::forward`, which neither read nor write memory, and do not escape their parameter. IR construction has been updated to insert the correct side effect instruction (or no side effect instruction) based on the model.
Semmle QL

How do I learn QL and run queries?
LGTM has extensive documentation on getting started with writing QL. You can use the interactive query console or the QL for Eclipse plugin to try out your queries on any open-source project that's currently being analyzed.
