[CodeView] Simplify the use of visiting type records & streams.
There is often a lot of boilerplate code required to visit a type
record or type stream. The #1 use case is that you have a sequence
of bytes that represent one or more records, and you want to
deserialize each one, switch on it, and call a callback with the
deserialized record that the user can examine. Currently this
requires at least 6 lines of code:
codeview::TypeVisitorCallbackPipeline Pipeline;
Pipeline.addCallbackToPipeline(Deserializer);
Pipeline.addCallbackToPipeline(MyCallbacks);
codeview::CVTypeVisitor Visitor(Pipeline);
consumeError(Visitor.visitTypeRecord(Record));
With this patch, it becomes one line of code:
consumeError(codeview::visitTypeRecord(Record, MyCallbacks));
This is done by having the deserialization happen internally inside
of the visitTypeRecord function. Since this is occasionally not
desirable, the function provides a 3rd parameter that can be used
to change this behavior.
Hopefully this can significantly reduce the barrier to entry
to using the visitation infrastructure.
