Instrumentation for delayed UB stemming from uninitialized memory #3374

As #3324 mentioned, delayed UB triggered by accessing uninitialized memory was previously mitigated by injecting assert!(false) for every possible source of it; this PR adds all the necessary infrastructure and minimal support for detecting it properly.

The process of detecting and instrumenting places is as follows:

  • Find all sources of delayed uninitialized memory UB (mutable pointer casts with different pointee padding and copy intrinsics);
  • Compute conservative aliasing graph between all memory places reachable from each harness;
  • Instrument all places pointed to by each source we found in step 1.

Not all language constructs are currently supported -- see the tracking issue (#3300) for the full list of limitations.

Resolves #3324

Having a points-to analysis in Rust is awesome!

## 0.54.0

### Major Changes
* We added support for slices in the `#[kani::modifies(...)]` clauses
when using function contracts.
* We introduce an `#[safety_constraint(...)]` attribute helper for the
`Arbitrary` and `Invariant` macros.
* We enabled support for concrete playback for harness that contains
stubs or function contracts.
* We added support for log2*, log10*, powif*, fma*, and sqrt*
intrisincs.

### Breaking Changes
* The `-Z ptr-to-ref-cast-checks` option has been removed, and pointer
validity checks when casting raw pointers to references are now run by
default.

* Make Kani reject mutable pointer casts if padding is incompatible and
memory initialization is checked by @artemagvanian in

…using backward iteration (#3438)

This PR is a follow-up to
#3374.

Its main purpose is to properly handle a corner-case when multiple
instrumentation instructions are added to the same instruction and not
all of them are skipped during subsequent instrumentation.

For example, if instrumentation is added after a terminator, a new basic
block will be created, containing the added instrumentation. However, we
currently only mark the first statement (or the terminator, if there are
none) of the new basic block as skipped for subsequent instrumentation.
That means that if instrumentation in this case contains some
instrumentation targets itself, it will never terminate.

Coincidentally, this is not currently the case, but could lead to subtle
bugs if we decide to change instrumentation. In fact, this bug was only
surfaced when I experimented with checking all memory accesses, which
introduced significantly more checks. Ultimately, this shows that the
current way to avoiding instrumentation is limited and needs to be
changed.

The PR introduces the following changes:

- Group instrumentation into separate basic blocks instead of adding
instructions one-by-one.
- Use backward iteration to avoid having to reason about which
instructions need to be skipped.

This PR is a follow-up to #3374.

It introduces the following changes:
- Instrument more writes to avoid the case when points-to analysis
overapproximates too much.
- Add extra tests featuring safe abstractions from standard library.
