It is already a pattern in other type hierarchies.
Virtual functions are only good, when they can have multiple implementations.
`ignoreCasts` by its name can have only one implementation and couldn't be
virtual. That's it! It is more useable now, and less confusing for its users.
The fact that its definition lives in some other cpp file doesn't change it.
================
Comment at:
clang/include/clang/StaticAnalyzer/Core/PathSensitive/SymbolManager.h:293-296
+ SymbolRef Sym = Operand;
+ while (isa<SymbolCast>(Sym))
+ Sym = cast<SymbolCast>(Sym)->Operand;
+ return Sym;

This function should be removed then.

Comment at: clang/lib/StaticAnalyzer/Core/RangeConstraintManager.cpp:3002-3004
+ std::tie(St, Sym, New) = modifySymbolAndConstraints(St, Sym, New);
+ if (!St)
+ return nullptr;
----------------
No, please, remove duplication by putting it inside of the constraint assignor.
It is designed specifically so we don't duplicate code around `assumeSymXX`
functions.
