ROLE REQUIRES

"matches"

Implementing classes must provide this method.

    return : 1 / undef
             1     -> this path is a development directory as far as this heuristic is concerned
             undef -> this path is not a development directory as far as this heuristic is concerned

    args : ( $class , $result_object )
        $class         -> method will be invoked on packages, not objects
        $result_object -> will be a Path::IsDev::Result

Additionally, consuming classes should set "$result_object->result( 1 )" prior to returning true.

Composing roles should also invoke "$result_object->add_reason( $self, $result_value, $descriptive_reason_for_result, \%contextinfo )".

See "Path::IsDev::Result" for details
