        <pre>The heuristic to guess ObjC vs C++ is pretty good now, but there will always be
cases where it fails, e.g.


===
#import "SomeOtherHeader.h"

int DoStuff(SomeOtherType *type);
===

where we cannot tell from the lexer if this is C++ or ObjC.

To fix this, we should add support for a special comment, similar to the
existing "clang-format off" comment.

Something like this:

===
#import "SomeOtherHeader.h"

// clang-format Language=ObjC

int DoStuff(SomeOtherType *type);
===</pre>
