//  This checker adds an assumption that constant globals of certain types* are
//  non-null, as otherwise they generally do not convey any useful information.
//  The assumption is useful, as many framework use e. g. global const strings,
//  and the analyzer might not be able to infer the global value if the
//  definition is in a separate translation unit.
//  The following types (and their typedef aliases) are considered to be
//  non-null:
//   - `char* const`
//   - `const CFStringRef` from CoreFoundation
//   - `NSString* const` from Foundation
//   - `CFBooleanRef` from Foundation
//
