Why no test? What was the incorrect symptom before?

I don't know why it works with clang, but with gcc I got a lot of layout tests failures when I implemented the database process sopport for GTK port. So, at the beginning I thought it was a compiler bug, see the discussion here https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=139491

Because of incorrect casting of the std::function<> object (through AsyncRequestImpl) the argument for the uint32_t parameter was passed in as a reference when invoking the wrapped function, while the function expected an argument that was passed in by value. Because of that the uint32_t argument actually held the address of the relevant uint32_t object, instead of the value.

This was only occurring when compiling with GCC. Getting the IDB tests running in GCC-compiled builds would show that this works as intended.
