I think this patch (and the previous ones that lead to it) are great.
That's the kind of thing that will make the data flow easier to
understand.
About the naming, it's a bit of a nit, but since it might set the
standard for future classes, I prefer to ask anyway. Does it help in
any way to prefix this class' name with "scoped_"? All C++
class/objects are "scoped" when statically allocated in a scope, meaning
that they get destroyed when execution goes out of that scope. So it's
not really the property of the class itself that it's scoped, more about
how it's being used. It would be a bit like naming "std::string" ->
"std::scoped_string", since it frees its resources when being destroyed.
"minimal_symbol_reader" sounds like a perfect name for that class,
doesn't it?
On the other hand, I think scoped_restore is appropriately named, since
it conveys that its primary (and only?) reason to exist is to be used in
conjunction with scopes to do some variable restoring.
