[cfe-dev] Clang defects that were fixed but still show up as Open

[Matheus Izvekov via cfe-dev]

I think it's completely fine to go in and close bugs that have been
dormant for a long time if you cannot reproduce them anymore.

I don't think there is anyone in the community that is really keeping
tabs on all the open bugs in clang,
so I don't think you would be stepping on anyone else's toes here and
would not need to coordinate it or anything.

Either testing existing cases from the bug description, or new ones
and linking to compiler explorer (but please also paste the code used
in case the link ever goes down).

As someone who often trawls for open bugs, I would highly appreciate this!

We would like to mark those defects as Resolved-Fixed, with a link to https://godbolt.org/ showing that the issue is no longer reproducible. Would that be ok or is there anything else that needs to be done for those cases?
