Yup, /me needs to sleep more ;)

This information is not available when registering matchers, since this happens before parsing. You can use `isInvalidDecl()` to check whether particular declaration had any errors, or `Result.Context->getTranslationUnitDecl()->isInvalidDecl()` to check the whole translation unit.

There are some valid use cases for running checks on a non-compilable code, e.g. editor integration.
