/// declaration to the ASTs for an expression.

/// Users expect the expression "i + 3" to return a result, even if a result
/// variable wasn't specifically declared.  To fulfil this requirement, LLDB
/// adds a result variable to the expression, transforming it to "int
/// $__lldb_expr_result = i + 3."  The IR transformers ensure that the
/// resulting variable is mapped to the right piece of memory.
/// ASTResultSynthesizer's job is to add the variable and its initialization
/// to the ASTs for the expression, and it does so by acting as a SemaConsumer
/// for Clang.
