Symbol* `toImport`(Symbol* `sym`);
Symbol* `toImport`(Dsymbol `ds`);
  Generate import symbol from symbol.

  Parameters:

  ClassDeclaration `cd` | C++ class

  Returns:
  symbol of instance of _cpp_type_info_ptr
Symbol* `toSymbolCppTypeInfo`(ClassDeclaration `cd`);
  Generate Symbol of C++ type info for C++ class cd.
