Please review this change to the HotSpot Style Guide to permit trailing return
types for functions.
This is a modification of the Style Guide, so rough consensus among the
HotSpot Group members is required to make this change. Only Group members
should vote for approval (via the github PR), though reasoned objections or
comments from anyone will be considered. A decision on this proposal will not
be made before Monday 8-September-2025 at 12h00 UTC.
Since we're piggybacking on github PRs here, please use the PR review process
to approve (click on Review Changes > Approve), rather than sending a "vote:
yes" email reply that would be normal for a CFV.
