Abseil LTS 2020092320200923
What's New: * `absl::StatusOr<T>` has been released. See our [blog post](https://abseil.io/blog/2020-091021-status) for more information. * Abseil Flags reflection interfaces have been released. * Abseil Flags memory usage has been significantly optimized. * Abseil now supports a "hardened" build mode. This build mode enables runtime checks that guard against programming errors that may lead to security vulnerabilities. Notable Fixes: * Sanitizer dynamic annotations like `AnnotateRWLockCreate` that are also defined by the compiler sanitizer implementation are no longer also defined by Abseil. * Sanitizer macros are now prefixed with `ABSL_` to avoid naming collisions. * Sanitizer usage is now automatically detected and no longer requires macros like `ADDRESS_SANITIZER` to be defined on the command line. Breaking Changes: * Abseil no longer contains a `dynamic_annotations` library. Users using a supported build system (Bazel or CMake) are unaffected by this, but users manually specifying link libraries may get an error about a missing linker input.

+//
+// A FlagSaver can be used within tests to temporarily change the test
+// environment and restore the test case to its previous state.
+//
+// Example:
+//
+// void MyFunc() {
+// absl::FlagSaver fs;
+// ...
+// absl::SetFlag(FLAGS_myFlag, otherValue);
+// ...
+// } // scope of FlagSaver left, flags return to previous state
+//
