This seems to work surprisingly well :-)

After having run the entire RAV cycle on the translation unit I invoke
LateTemplateParser on all collected FunctionDecls. Then I need to RAV all
these decls again to collect uses, but it seems to work.

I'm guessing this introduces a risk for double-visiting FunctionDecls that
_do_ become instantiated; can I somehow check the FDs before forcefully
instantiating them? Not that I think it makes a big difference, it just
seems hygienic not to late-parse and revisit stuff that's already been
recorded.

Many thanks!
