r347339 - [clang][Parse] Diagnose useless null statements / empty init-statements

Should this be in -Wextra-semi? It seems weird to have to pass both
-Wextra-semi and -Wextra-semi-stmt.

(Also, we generally try to not add DefaultIgnore warnings. I think this is
a useful warning though, and other than others in this thread I think it'd
be good to have -Wextra-semi in -Wall. But I don't feel strongly about that
part.)
