================
Comment at: lib/StaticAnalyzer/Checkers/EnumCastOutOfRangeChecker.cpp:96
+  // Get the value of the expression to cast.
+  const auto ValueToCastOptional =
+      C.getSVal(CE->getSubExpr()).getAs<DefinedOrUnknownSVal>();

If we are talking only about this case - here you can see `getAs<DefinedOrUnknownSVal>` part of the expression. this means clearly (at least for me) that we get something like `DefinedOrUnknownSVal`. What we get? I just press hotkey in my favourite IDE/text editor and see that `getAs` returns `llvm::Optional<DefinedOrUnknownSVal>`. From my point of view it's clear enough here.

Ok, didn't know about such LLVM coding standard. Of course, with this information I will fix using `auto` here. Thank you.
