[cfe-dev] -Wno-#warnings, what a funky name

[David Blaikie via cfe-dev]

Looks like the GCC version of this warning is spelled:

-Wno-cpp

(C, Objective-C, C++, Objective-C++ and Fortran only)

Suppress warning messages emitted by #warning directives.
Perhaps we could/should provide a matching alias.
