Subject: [PATCH 2/9] [clang-analizer] MallocChecker: fix false positive leak
for unique_ptr in temporary objects
When a unique_ptr is nested inside a temporary object passed by value to a function,
the analyzer couldn't see the destructor call and incorrectly reported a leak.
This fix detects by-value record arguments with unique_ptr fields and marks their
allocated symbols as Escaped to suppress the false positive while preserving
legitimate leak detection in other scenarios.
Key implementation:
- Add isUniquePtrType() to recognize both std::unique_ptr and custom implementations
- Add collectDirectUniquePtrFieldRegions() to scan smart pointer field regions
- Add post-call logic in checkPostCall() to escape allocations from unique_ptr fields
- Handle missing regions with fallback that marks all allocated symbols as escaped
The fix is targeted and safe:
- Only affects by-value record arguments with unique_ptr fields
- Uses proven EscapeTrackedCallback pattern from existing codebase
- Conservative: only suppresses leaks when specific pattern is detected
- Flexible: handles both standard and custom unique_ptr implementations
Fixes PR60896.

Subject: [PATCH 3/9] [clang-analyzer] MallocChecker: extend false positive
leak fix to support shared_ptr
Extend the existing post-call escape rule to recognize std::shared_ptr<T> fields
in addition to std::unique_ptr<T>. The fix suppresses false positive leaks
when smart pointers are nested in temporary objects passed by value to functions.
Key changes:
- Replace isUniquePtrType() with isSmartOwningPtrType() that recognizes both
unique_ptr and shared_ptr (both std:: and custom implementations)
- Update field collection logic to use the generalized smart pointer detection
- Add test coverage for shared_ptr scenarios
The fix remains narrow and safe:
- Only affects rvalue by-value record arguments at call sites
- Only scans from direct smart pointer field regions (no mass escapes)
- Inline-agnostic; no checkPreCall mutations
- Intentionally excludes std::weak_ptr (non-owning)
Fixes PR60896 and extends the solution to cover shared_ptr use cases.

Subject: [PATCH 5/9] [analyzer][test] Refactor smart pointer leak suppression
and combine tests
- Applied requested refactoring in MallocChecker (API cleanup, code reuse, duplication reduction, base class field support).
- Merged unique_ptr and shared_ptr PR60896 tests into a single file.
