…ze array (llvm#81927)
Example:
int arr[10];
int * ptr = arr;
If ptr is unsafe and we transform it to std::span then the fixit we'd currently provide transforms the code to:
std::span ptr{arr, 10};
That's suboptimal as that repeats the size of the array in the code. The idiomatic transformation should rely on the span constructor that takes just the array argument and relies on template parameter autodeduction to set the span size.
The transformed code should look like:
std::span ptr = arr;
Note that it just should not change the initializer at all and that also works for other forms of initialization like:
int * ptr {arr};
becoming:
std::span ptr{arr};
This patch changes the initializer handling to the desired (empty) fixit.
