[cfe-dev] ArrayTypeTraitExpr - question about serialization

Hi all,

While implementing AST import from PCH file (-ast-dump), I stepped on an 
issue with ArrayTypeTraitExpr serialization. When ArrayTypeTraitExpr is 
being serialized, its sub-expr (dimension expression) doesn't got 
serialized.

So the question is: should we serialize ArrayTypeTraitExpr::Dimension? 
And, if yes, are ASTImporter tests a good place for test case (the fix 
itself is pretty simple)? The issue is that I tried to import dimension 
expression which was never initialized in PCH.

The another question is: how full the serialization should be? Should we 
always serialize all the parts of AST nodes or just some meaningful?
