        <pre>llvm-project/llvm/lib/TextAPI/MachO/TextStub.cpp:416:14: warning: returning
address of local temporary object [-Wreturn-stack-address]

The code there is
```
  static StringRef input(StringRef Scalar, void *, Target &Value) {
    auto Result = Target::create(Scalar);
    if (!Result)
      return toString(Result.takeError());
```
The `toString` function returns a temporary std::string, so the return value of
`input` refers to a then-destroyed temporary std::string.


Was detected by clang 10 or later by adding `[[gsl::Pointer]]` to StringRef
(see <a href="https://reviews.llvm.org/D66443">https://reviews.llvm.org/D66443</a>).</pre>
