Review Comment:
   Hi @tisonkun, thanks for your review.
   
   > I wonder if we can generate a compile time error instead of runtime fatal 
in this case.
   
   Good idea. We consider an example for this:
   ```c++
   auto res = someProcess(...); // get result typed StatusOr<T>
   // we cannot deref `res` here
   
   if(!res) { 
     processError(res.GetCode(), res.Msg()); /* or */ return res; // we cannot 
deref `res` here
   }
   
   doSomething(*res); // we can deref it
   ```
   
   In this example, only the `doSomething` part can actually dereference the 
`res`. 
   We cannot dereference it both before `if(!res)` and inside `if(!res)`.
   So only in the execution path with the condition `res.IsOk() == true` being 
satisfied, we can dereference `res`,
   
   It is hardly to express in compile time, since it is related to the control 
flow.
   Like a raw/smart pointer, we should check it does point to a value (not 
null) before dereference it.
   
   I have implemented a checker in Clang Static Analyzer for OneFlow that 
checks whether a type like `StatusOr` is dereferenced after checking `IsOk()` 
using [symbolic execution](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_execution), 
and I think it can be done in this way in the future.
