<pre>clang-tidy logs only one bool-pointer-implicit-conversion warning for following
code:
bool test(bool* pointer_to_bool)
{
if (pointer_to_bool) { // warning, as expected :)
}
return pointer_to_bool; // no warning, but why not? :(
}
The `return pointer_to_bool` statement uses pointer_to_bool in a boolean
expression but doesn't trigger a warning.
clang-tidy --checks="-*,misc-bool-pointer-implicit-conversion"
bool-pointer-implicit-conversion.cpp
bool-pointer-implicit-conversion.cpp:5:7: warning: dubious check of 'bool *'
against 'nullptr', did you mean to dereference it?
[misc-bool-pointer-implicit-conversion]
if (pointer_to_bool) { // warning
