I recently upgraded GCC requirement to 8.3.0 based on
https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/WebKitGTK/GCCRequirement
<https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/WebKitGTK/GCCRequirement>
(https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/283348/webkit
<https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/283348/webkit>)
As a result, we can use some of C++20 features.
I wonder if we can flip C++20 now. While some of C++20 features cannot be used
since GCC 8.3.0 does not support, but some of features can be used, and it is
super useful.
One of the good features is initializer for bit-fields, which can avoid
uninitialized bit-field bugs.
class A {
bool m_test : 1 : { false };
};
