Subject: [PATCH 1/2] [libc] Implement CheckedPtr utility
This adds CheckedPtr, a wrapper around cpp::unique_ptr (along with a
make_unique helper) that asserts in !NDEBUG builds that the pointer was
checked for nullness before it is dereferenced, destroyed or overwritten
(e.g., move assignment). This way, a missing check is caught even if the
allocation succeeds.
The idea is replace AllocChecker (which was meant to serve a similar
purpose, but the checking part didn't materialize so far). See
<https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-error-checking-apis-for-memory-allocation-and-management/92511>
for more details.
A few notable design choices:
- operator bool() is non-const so the checked flag does not need to be
mutable (avoiding data races on concurrent const reads)
- moving a CheckedPtr disarms the source and leaves the destination
unchecked (similar to llvm::Error), forcing the new owner to check it
- the class wraps unique_ptr rather than replacing it, as I expect we
will use for a non-checked owning pointer (CheckedPtr isn't
particularly suitable for long term storage in a member variable).
- the API is intentionally minimal for now (no default constructor,
get, release, reset, swap, or nullptr comparisons).
