The `AccumulateChildErrors` value looks the only common thing. It can mean: Accumulate errors (or not) for declarations that are in child-relationship with the parent. The value is only dependent on the parent, true if it is a `TagDecl`. This value can be extracted into a function that is used in `importDeclContext` and at `Import(Decl *)`. At `importDeclContext` we should accumulate or discard errors for every child node. But not for possible other nodes that are imported but are not a child node (probably no such exists now but theoretically it is possible, and when using the error handling strategy for non-namespace-like nodes).
