clang/lib/ASTMatchers/Dynamic/Marshallers.h:939: possible performance problem ?

[dcb314]

Static analyser cppcheck says:

clang/lib/ASTMatchers/Dynamic/Marshallers.h:939:54: performance: Function parameter 'NodeKinds' should be passed by const reference. [passedByValue]

Source code is

MapAnyOfMatcherDescriptor(ASTNodeKind CladeNodeKind,
std::vector NodeKinds)

I wouldn't have bothered normally, but NodeKinds is a vector, which implies there
are many objects of type ASTNodeKind.

Might be worth tuning.

The analysis looks correct.

3. Fix the issue locally.
4. Run the test suite locally. Remember that the subdirectories under test/ create fine-grained testing targets, so you can e.g. use make check-clang-ast to only run Clang's AST tests.
5. Create a Git commit.
6. Run git clang-format HEAD~1 to format your changes.
7. Open a pull request to the upstream repository on GitHub. Detailed instructions can be found in GitHub's documentation. Mention this issue in the description of the pull request.
