  1. Add initial support for pointers in reverse mode 

    This commit adds support for pointer operation in reverse mode. The technique is to maintain a corresponding derivative pointer variable, which gets updated (and stored/restored) in the exact same way as the primal pointer variable in both forward and reverse passes.
Added a workaround (with a FIXME comment) in the UsefulToStoreGlobal method to essentially bypass TBR analysis results for pointer expr.

Fixes vgvassilev#195, Fixes vgvassilev#197
