+/**
+ * This checker implements the "can run script" analysis. The idea is to detect
+ * functions that can run script that are being passed reference-counted
+ * arguments (including "this") whose refcount might go to zero as a result of
+ * the script running. We want to prevent that.
+ *
+ * The approach is to attempt to enforce the following invariants on the call
+ * graph:
+ *
+ * 1) Any caller of a MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT function is itself MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT.
+ * 2) If a virtual MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT method overrides a base class method,
+ * that base class method is also MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT.
+ *
+ * Invariant 2 ensures that we don't accidentally call a MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT
+ * function via a base-class virtual call. Invariant 1 ensures that
+ * the property of being able to run script propagates up the callstack. There
+ * is an opt-out for invariant 1: A function (declaration _or_ implementation)
+ * can be decorated with MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT_BOUNDARY to indicate that we do not
+ * require it or any of its callers to be MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT even if it calls
+ * MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT functions.
+ *
+ * There are two known holes in invariant 1, apart from the
+ * MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT_BOUNDARY opt-out:
+ *
+ * - Functions called via function pointers can be MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT even if
+ * their caller is not, because we have no way to determine from the function
+ * pointer what function is being called.
+ * - MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT destructors can happen in functions that are not
+ * MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT.
+ * https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1535523 tracks this.
+ *
+ * Given those invariants we then require that when calling a MOZ_CAN_RUN_SCRIPT
+ * function all refcounted arguments (including "this") satisfy one of these
+ * conditions:
+ * a) The argument is held via a strong pointer on the stack.
+ * b) The argument is a const strong pointer member of "this". We know "this"
+ * is being kept alive, and a const strong pointer member can't drop its ref
+ * until "this" dies.
+ * c) The argument is an argument of the caller (and hence held by a strong
+ * pointer somewhere higher up the callstack).
+ * d) The argument is explicitly annotated with MOZ_KnownLive, which indicates
+ * that something is guaranteed to keep it alive (e.g. it's rooted via a JS
+ * reflector).
+ * e) The argument is constexpr and therefore cannot disappear.
