Missing body for package/object type specification

Reports package and object type specifications that are missing body declarations.

Package specifications and object types that declare routines as well as package specifications with cursors must have body declarations where those routines and cursors are implemented. Absence of a body leads to a runtime error when routines or cursors are invoked in program code.

Example (Oracle):

CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE ppp IS
    FUNCTION foo(a INT) RETURN INT;
END;
