Could you rename the arguments like `To`, `From` or `Exception`, `Catch` or something to make the direction of the conversion clearer?

One utility might help with one check or two, but won't replace the need to go ove all of them. Also I think it's easier to understand which section checks what, if I keep them separated.

I see. It is unfortunate that we cannot simply reuse the corresponding functionality from Sema. The code mostly looks good to me, apart from some nits.

If this rule only applies to C++20 and above, consider adding a language version check for LangOpts.
================
Comment at: clang-tools-extra/clang-tidy/utils/ExceptionAnalyzer.cpp:130-131
+ if (!P1->isPointerType() || !P2->isPointerType())
+ return convertible && P1->getUnqualifiedDesugaredType() ==
+ P2->getUnqualifiedDesugaredType();
+
----------------
Looking at the documentation of DesugaredType:
```
This takes off typedefs, typeof's etc. If the outer level of the type is already concrete, it returns it unmodified. This is similar to getting the canonical type, but it doesn't remove all typedefs. For example, it returns "T*" as "T*", (not as "int*"), because the pointer is concrete.
```
I wonder if we actually want to compare canonical types rather than desugared types.
