SIL SideEffects: handle program termination point functions

Browse Source 
We can ignore any memory writes in a program termination point, because it's not relevant for the caller.
But we need to consider memory reads, otherwise preceeding memory writes would be eliminated by dead-store-elimination in the caller.
E.g. String initialization for error strings which are printed by the program termination point.
Regarding ownership: a program termination point must not touch any reference counted objects.
