Decide on a more appropriate abstraction for taint sources. Currently it is file-focused, e.g. the file descriptor is stored along side. However, with the introduction of argv tainting this abstraction no longer holds. Also, additional taint sources are being planned for e.g. sockets.
This will require a refactor of the TDAG file (at least slightly).
I believe we should plan for implementing the 'Section'-type previously discussed, and use a shared string table.
