[analyzer] Mention possibility of underflow in array overflow errors (#…
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
…84201)

The checker alpha.security.ArrayBoundV2 performs bounds checking in two
steps: first it checks for underflow, and if it isn't guaranteed then it
assumes that there is no underflow. After this, it checks for overflow,
and if that's guaranteed or the index is tainted then it reports it.

This meant that in situations where overflow and underflow are both
possible (but the index is either tainted or guaranteed to be invalid),
the checker was reporting just an overflow error.

This commit modifies the messages printed in these cases to mention the
possibility of an underflow.
