Paul Berry a74253987b Migration: add trace functionality to the preview tool.
This establishes the base functionality.  A lot of follow-up work is
needed from here:

- Each trace should have an entry at the top of it pointing to the
  thing that was made nullable.

- The source code links in traces don't include lengths, so we can't
  highlight whole identifiers when the user clicks on a link.

- Description strings are currently generated by running toString() on
  the individual nullability nodes and edges, resulting in long-winded
  and useless descriptions.

analysis_server

A long-running process that provides analysis results to other tools.

The analysis server is designed to provide on-going analysis of one or more code bases as those code bases are changing.

Using the server

The analysis server is not intended to be used stand-alone, and therefore does not have a human-friendly user interface.

Clients (typically tools, such as an editor) are expected to run the analysis server in a separate process and communicate with it using a JSON protocol. The original protocol is specified in the file analysis_server/doc/api.html and (less complete) Language Server Protocol support is documented in tool/lsp_spec/README.md.
