I just did the following search and saw that there are multiple stack overflow answers etc. recommending the use of `-Xclang -ast-dump=json`: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22-ast-dump%3Djson%22 I am not sure how many actual consumers there are, but I think it would be good to keep this option to avoid surprises for users. While they probably shouldn't be using internal -cc1 options, this is the only documented way of getting an AST dump.
