build/clang: fix detection of valid warning compiler flags
clang does not exit with error when it is called with an unrecognized (warning) option. Instead it just prints a warning that makes the configure script believe the warning is supported. Later, during build we might pass -Werror, which causes clang to fail due to unrecognized arguments. Fix the script to detect compiler warnings by passing '-Werror=unknown-warning-option', which lets clang fail too. Signed-off-by: Thomas Haller <thaller@redhat.com>
