The clang only togges are passed to every BPF object build, including
for BPF_GCC build.
GCC accepts an unknown -Wno-foo silently until some other diagnostic fires,
and then appends a note to it, so every warning in a bpf_gcc build comes with
two lines of noise:
cc1: note: unrecognized command-line option '-Wno-initializer-overrides' may have been intended to silence earlier diagnostics
cc1: note: unrecognized command-line option '-Wno-microsoft-anon-tag' may have been intended to silence earlier diagnostics
Collect them in CLANG_BPF_CFLAGS and hand them only to the clang
flavors, through the per-flavor BPF_CC_FLAGS that Makefile.skel appends
after BPF_CFLAGS.
Only these two are clang-only; -Wno-compare-distinct-pointer-types and
-fms-extensions are understood by GCC 14 and later and stay in
BPF_CFLAGS.
