This is a quick proof-of-concept for an idea I had a while ago: unassume for variable protection in mutex analysis.
It is the first example of a non–value-domain unassume operator.

To do so, this also implements the custom protected_by YAML witness entry type from our COOP 2023 talk, including generation and validation.
On test 13/01 it reduces evals 23 → 19, so it conceptually seems to work (even in a trivial case!). But this needs more evaluation to see its potential.

TODO

  • Add (cram?) tests.
  • Experiment on larger (pthread) programs.
  • Add location_mutex entry type as well.
