The entire CompilerInvocation could have been created programmatically. I suggest instead saying the warning flag is implied by the other command-line options.

Since that's impossible to recreate, maybe there should be an assertion to catch this? Alternatively, should this kind of imply-diagnostic-options logic be moved to the driver?

Parsing could translate command-line options to this initial state. The state could be modified programmatically; it'd also be used to initialize DiagnosticsEngine. Generating command-line options would emit a canonical set of options that would recreate the state. But that's a pretty big refactoring, and I think it's okay to make progress without that.

Using "implied" would be fitting as well. I guess I wanted to distinguish this from other implied options that don't need any explicit special-casing.

You're right the way of handling warnings is fragile. Normalizing the arguments into `DiagState` would be more robust, but as you say, it's a bit more involved. I'm putting that on my back-burner.

In the end, I looked into the history of `-Wno-stdlibcxx-not-found` and `-Wspir-compat` more closely and found ways to remove them from `CompilerInvocation` entirely: D97041 & D97042.
