Also, I don't think it's always UB to mark a constructor as being pure, it's just not a sensible operation because a constructor does not produce a value. (For example, this constructor doesn't violate any principles of function purity except that it's not called for its value: `struct S { [[gnu::pure]] S() {} };`)
And I think the same logic applies to marking a destructor as pure; it doesn't make sense as an operation.
How about: `'%select{pure|const}0' attribute applied to a function which %select{returns 'void'|has no return value}1; attribute ignored`? Then it handles both situations, both attributes, and we don't need to invent a new warning group (it can go under `IgnoredAttributes`).
