Pull Request Overview
This PR enables the Guards library wrapper guard integration with BarrierGuard in Java, allowing data flow sanitizers to leverage the full power of the Guards library including wrapped validation checks. This eliminates the need for ad-hoc support in individual barriers.
- Adds support for SSA definition-based guard checking in the Guards library
- Refactors BarrierGuard implementation to use wrapped validation checks with state
- Removes custom validation method logic from path sanitizers and arithmetic guards

Fixed the kotlin qltest in two ways (either of the two added commits suffice to fix the test). Firstly, kotlin Throws annotations are now recognized - we definitely want that, as that's similar to the java |

This enables the Guards library wrapper guard integration with BarrierGuard such that data flow sanitizers make use of the full power of the Guards library including wrapped validation checks.
Some individual barriers had ad-hoc support for this, which can now be deleted as it becomes superfluous.
