        <pre>Examples:

bool test(int *p) {
  int i = *p;
  if (!p)
    return false;
  // ... continue using i
}

We should warn on the condition, because if the condition is ever true then
undefined behaviour must have already occurred. (Similarly on 'p' and the
condition being false.)

bool test2(int idx) {
  char arr[100];
  arr[idx] = '\0';
  if (idx < 0 || idx >= 100)  // either of these alone should also suffice to
warn
    return false;
  // ...
}

Examples putting the overflow inside the condition expression:

bool test3(int x) {
  if ((x+1) < x)
  ...

bool test4(int x, int y) {
  if (x != (x*y)/y)
