Does it have something to do with constraints being propagated which we discussed below?

I put a new test function in `constant-folding.c` as:

```
void testAdditionRulesNew(int c, int d) {
  if (c < 0 && c != INT_MIN && d < 0) {
    clang_analyzer_eval((c + d) == 0); // expected-warning{{FALSE}}
  }
}
```
I tested this specific function as:

  ./build/bin/clang -cc1 -analyze -analyzer-checker=core,debug.ExprInspection -analyze-function=testAdditionRulesNew constant-folding.c

And I got the following output:

  ../clang/test/Analysis/constant-folding.c:338:5: warning: FALSE [debug.ExprInspection]
    clang_analyzer_eval((c + d) == 0); // expected-warning{{FALSE}}

which is correct.

But when I ran the same test inside `testAdditionRules`, using:
    ./build/bin/clang -cc1 -analyze -analyzer-checker=core,debug.ExprInspection -analyze-function=testAdditionRules constant-folding.c
then I got:

  ../clang/test/Analysis/constant-folding.c:281:5: warning: FALSE [debug.ExprInspection]
    clang_analyzer_eval((c + d) == 0); // expected-warning{{FALSE}}                                                                                            
    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~                                          
  ../clang/test/Analysis/constant-folding.c:281:5: warning: TRUE [debug.ExprInspection]
    clang_analyzer_eval((c + d) == 0); // expected-warning{{FALSE}}                                                                                            
    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~                      

Here, `c = [INT_MIN + 1, -1]` and `d = [INT_MIN, 0]`, so `c + d = [INT_MIN, -2] U [1, INT_MAX]`. So `c + d == 0` should be false. But in latter case, it is reasoning `c + d == 0` to be `UNKNOWN`.

Also, the error arises in `c + d == 0` case only and not in `c + d == -1` case. I mistakenly highlighted that case while commenting.
