/**
* A detector is able to find a particular problem (or a set of related problems).
* Each problem type is uniquely identified as an {@link Issue}.
*
* Detectors will be called in a predefined order:
*
* - Manifest file
*
- Resource files, in alphabetical order by resource type
* (therefore, "layout" is checked before "values", "values-de" is checked before
* "values-en" but after "values", and so on.
*
- Java sources
*
- Java classes
*
- Gradle files
*
- Generic files
*
- Proguard files
*
- Property files
*
* If a detector needs information when processing a file type that comes from a type of
* file later in the order above, they can request a second phase; see
* {@link LintDriver#requestRepeat}.
* NOTE: This is not a public or final API; if you rely on this be prepared
* to adjust your code for the next tools release.
