Description

As posted by @PetarMax in https://github.com/runtimeverification/kontrol/issues/822#issuecomment-2367887988, when summarising a function, if one of the parameters or fields is an address, we need to assume that it does not equal the cheatcode account address.

Research direction

Start by locating the function-summary path for CSE and the handling of parameter and field assumptions. Trace how the cheatcode account address is represented, then add coverage showing that address parameters and fields are constrained not to equal it; done means both cases are handled during summarisation.
