+`clang-check` will be run only when files are saved to disk, so that
+`compile_commands.json` files can be used. It is recommended to use this
+linter in combination with `compile_commands.json` files.
+Therefore, `clang-check` linter reads the options |g:ale_c_build_dir| and
+|g:ale_c_build_dir_names|. Also, setting |g:ale_c_build_dir| actually
+overrides |g:ale_c_build_dir_names|.
