Comment:

 I tried emulating this with
 `--regex-c='/MOCK_IMPL\([^,]+,\W*(\w+)\W*,/\1/f/'` but there's a
 limitation that ctags only looks at one line, and these definitions often
 wrap. If you use `-IMOCK_DECL -IMOCK_IMPL`, the tags will exist but as
 variables rather than functions. If you add this as a `.ctags` file in the
 root, it'll map to everything, and thus also hide the actual definitions
 of `MOCK_DECL` and `MOCK_IMPL` in `src/common/testsupport.h`.
