STR:

Search for the callers of the AsyncTransform constructor declared on this line.

Expected results:

The call site on this line is found.

Actual results:

The call site in question is not found.

The omission is understandable, as the call site is dependent. Nonetheless, clang knows about the call sites in the template instantiations, and one could imagine Searchfox offering up the corresponding dependent calls as "potential callers", or something like that.

(To put this in context with bug 1453506: that's a situation where the dependent call is not useful as a search result, but the callers of that particular instantiation are. I think that's orthogonal, though; it would be fine if the dependent call showed up as a "potential result" in the bug 1453506 case as a result of a fix here.)
