In YAML we wouldn't need to support empty optional being *explicitly* specified - it would just be the default.

So specifying `DesignatedInitializerIndentWidth: 4` would set the `std::optional<unsigned>` to `4` but if `DesignatedInitializerIndentWidth` was omitted from the YAML then the optional would simply not be set during parsing.

Of course, if we were to change `PPIndentWidth` to work that way too, it would technically be a breaking change because users may have *explicitly* specified `-1` in their YAML.
