Improvements to clang-query
---------------------------
-- A new command line parameter ``--preload`` was added to
- run commands from a file and then start the interactive interpreter.
-
-- The command ``q`` can was added as an alias for ``quit`` to exit the
- ``clang-query`` interpreter.
-
-- It is now possible to bind to named values (the result of ``let``
- expressions). For example:
-
- .. code-block:: none
-
- let fn functionDecl()
- match fn.bind("foo")
-
-- It is now possible to write comments in ``clang-query`` code. This
- is primarily useful when using script-mode. Comments are all content
- following the ``#`` character on a line:
-
- .. code-block:: none
-
- # This is a comment
- match fn.bind("foo") # This is a trailing comment
-
-- The new ``set print-matcher true`` command now causes ``clang-query`` to
- print the evaluated matcher together with the resulting bindings.
-
-- A new output mode ``detailed-ast`` was added to ``clang-query``. The
- existing ``dump`` output mode is now a deprecated alias
- for ``detailed-ast``
-
-- Output modes can now be enabled or disabled non-exclusively. For example,
-
- .. code-block:: none
-
- # Enable detailed-ast without disabling other output, such as diag
- enable output detailed-ast
- m functionDecl()
-
- # Disable detailed-ast only
- disable output detailed-ast
- m functionDecl()

Improvements to clang-tidy
--------------------------
-- New :doc:`abseil-duration-comparison
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-duration-comparison>` check.
-
- Checks for comparisons which should be done in the ``absl::Duration`` domain
- instead of the float of integer domains.
-
-- New :doc:`abseil-duration-division
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-duration-division>` check.
-
- Checks for uses of ``absl::Duration`` division that is done in a
- floating-point context, and recommends the use of a function that
- returns a floating-point value.
-
-- New :doc:`abseil-duration-factory-float
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-duration-factory-float>` check.
-
- Checks for cases where the floating-point overloads of various
- ``absl::Duration`` factory functions are called when the more-efficient
- integer versions could be used instead.
-
-- New :doc:`abseil-duration-factory-scale
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-duration-factory-scale>` check.
-
- Checks for cases where arguments to ``absl::Duration`` factory functions are
- scaled internally and could be changed to a different factory function.
-
-- New :doc:`abseil-duration-subtraction
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-duration-subtraction>` check.
-
- Checks for cases where subtraction should be performed in the
- ``absl::Duration`` domain.
-
-- New :doc:`abseil-faster-strsplit-delimiter
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-faster-strsplit-delimiter>` check.
-
- Finds instances of ``absl::StrSplit()`` or ``absl::MaxSplits()`` where the
- delimiter is a single character string literal and replaces with a character.
-
-- New :doc:`abseil-no-internal-dependencies
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-no-internal-dependencies>` check.
-
- Gives a warning if code using Abseil depends on internal details.
-
-- New :doc:`abseil-no-namespace
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-no-namespace>` check.
-
- Ensures code does not open ``namespace absl`` as that violates Abseil's
- compatibility guidelines.
-
-- New :doc:`abseil-redundant-strcat-calls
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-redundant-strcat-calls>` check.
-
- Suggests removal of unnecessary calls to ``absl::StrCat`` when the result is
- being passed to another ``absl::StrCat`` or ``absl::StrAppend``.
-
-- New :doc:`abseil-str-cat-append
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-str-cat-append>` check.
-
- Flags uses of ``absl::StrCat()`` to append to a ``std::string``. Suggests
- ``absl::StrAppend()`` should be used instead.
-
-- New :doc:`abseil-upgrade-duration-conversions
- <clang-tidy/checks/abseil-upgrade-duration-conversions>` check.
-
- Finds calls to ``absl::Duration`` arithmetic operators and factories whose
- argument needs an explicit cast to continue compiling after upcoming API
- changes.
-
-- New :doc:`bugprone-too-small-loop-variable
- <clang-tidy/checks/bugprone-too-small-loop-variable>` check.
-
- Detects those ``for`` loops that have a loop variable with a "too small" type
- which means this type can't represent all values which are part of the
- iteration range.
-
-- New :doc:`cppcoreguidelines-macro-usage
- <clang-tidy/checks/cppcoreguidelines-macro-usage>` check.
-
- Finds macro usage that is considered problematic because better language
- constructs exist for the task.
-
-- New :doc:`google-objc-function-naming
- <clang-tidy/checks/google-objc-function-naming>` check.
-
- Checks that function names in function declarations comply with the naming
- conventions described in the Google Objective-C Style Guide.
-
-- New :doc:`misc-non-private-member-variables-in-classes
- <clang-tidy/checks/misc-non-private-member-variables-in-classes>` check.
-
- Finds classes that not only contain the data (non-static member variables),
- but also have logic (non-static member functions), and diagnoses all member
- variables that have any other scope other than ``private``.
-
-- New :doc:`modernize-avoid-c-arrays
- <clang-tidy/checks/modernize-avoid-c-arrays>` check.
-
- Finds C-style array types and recommend to use ``std::array<>`` /
- ``std::vector<>``.
-
-- New :doc:`modernize-concat-nested-namespaces
- <clang-tidy/checks/modernize-concat-nested-namespaces>` check.
-
- Checks for uses of nested namespaces in the form of
- ``namespace a { namespace b { ... }}`` and offers change to
- syntax introduced in C++17 standard: ``namespace a::b { ... }``.
-
-- New :doc:`modernize-deprecated-ios-base-aliases
- <clang-tidy/checks/modernize-deprecated-ios-base-aliases>` check.

- those that have a non-deprecated equivalent.
-
-- New :doc:`modernize-use-nodiscard
- <clang-tidy/checks/modernize-use-nodiscard>` check.

- to highlight at compile time which return values should not be ignored.
-
-- New :doc:`readability-isolate-decl
- <clang-tidy/checks/readability-isolate-declaration>` check.

- <clang-tidy/checks/readability-magic-numbers>` check.
-
- Detects usage of magic numbers, numbers that are used as literals instead of
