[Analyzer] Constraint Manager - Calculate Effective Range for Differences

Since rL335814, if the constraint manager cannot find a range set for `A - B`
(where `A` and `B` are symbols) it looks for a range for `B - A` and returns
it negated if it exists. However, if a range set for both `A - B` and `B - A`
is stored then it only returns the first one. If we both use `A - B` and
`B - A`, these expressions behave as two totally unrelated symbols. This way
we miss some useful deductions which may lead to false negatives or false
positives.

This tiny patch changes this behavior: if the symbolic expression the
constraint manager is looking for is a difference `A - B`, it tries to
retrieve the range for both `A - B` and `B - A` and if both exists it returns
the intersection of range `A - B` and the negated range of `B - A`. This way
every time a checker applies new constraints to the symbolic difference or to
its negated it always affects both the original difference and its negated.
