Offline discussion about tdf#96067 "Crash on undo row inserts" brought up the
idea to warn about cases where uses of dynamic_cast are statically knwon to
always fail. Clang's clang::AST::CXXDynamicCastExpr::isAlwaysNull already
implements such a check, reporting true if the casted-from class is final, but
has two issues:
For one, it does not work for template code, when one of the involved types is a
template parameter type (so e.g., DestType->castAs<PointerType>() can crash).
For another, it misses the opportunity to report true if the casted-to type is
final and only derives from the casted-from type non-publicly. My hope was that
this, after the "final" decorations in 548c43238d
"Mark some classes as final," might turn up the culprit of tdf#96067 (with a
scenario similar to the failed dynamic_cast on private derivation in
63b67ab5ca "Use public derivation, and remove
then-unnecessary downcasts")---but not so.
