Previously, -fshow-overloads=best always showed 4 candidates. The
problem is, when this isn't enough, you're kind of up a creek; the only
option available is to recompile with different flags. This can be
quite expensive!
With this change, we try to strike a compromise. The *first* error with
more than 4 candidates will show up to 32 candidates. All further
errors continue to show only 4 candidates.
The hope is that this way, users will have *some chance* of making
forward progress, without facing unbounded amounts of error spam.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D95754
function that takes a const Foo&, where Foo is convertible from a large number
of pointer types, we print ALL the overloads, no matter the setting of
-fshow-overloads.
There is potential follow-on work in unifying the "print candidates, but not
too many" logic between OverloadCandidateSet::NoteCandidates and
ImplicitConversionSequence::DiagnoseAmbiguousConversion.
