Description
One of the biggest things that can affect our analysis is not starting with types we should know because they're provided by the platform's SDK or are common to a language runtime (e.g. libc). We need to make a concerted effort to update our type libraries to provide these types by default. This issue is intended to track all of the type libraries we don't currently ship by default (or do, but have issues/need updated). This issue is not intended to track more general type library improvements. That ticket is #3687.
