It's more that `QueryDriverDatabase` [uses](https://searchfox.org/llvm/rev/f213128b292da85f68eeebbb68cba1541e1c39e2/clang-tools-extra/clangd/QueryDriverDatabase.cpp#354) the `Directory` field of `tooling::CompileCommand` in addition to the arguments.

We could add the directory as another argument to the function, but at that point why not group the arguments into `tooling::CompileCommand` which is more semantically meaningful?

As for polymorphism vs. `unique_function`, I don't feel strongly about that, happy to change that up. (I do find `function` more annoying to debug because `step into` at a call site in the debugger steps into some hard-to-read library code, but that's probably better solved at the debugger tooling level.)
