Disable warnings in string/tester.c at top level.
string/tester.c contains code that correctly triggers various GCC warnings about dubious uses of string functions (uses that are being deliberately tested there), and duly disables those warnings around the relevant code. A change in GCC mainline resulted in this code failing to compile with a -Warray-bounds error, despite the location with the error having -Warray-bounds already disabled. This has been reported as <https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=91890>. This patch avoids that problem and possible future issues with these diagnostics by moving all the warning disabling in this file to top level, as suggested by Florian in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-10/msg00033.html>, rather than only doing it locally around specific function calls. Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for aarch64-linux-gnu with GCC mainline (with only the conform/ failures noted in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-10/msg00043.html>). * string/tester.c: Ignore -Warray-bounds and -Wmemset-transposed-args at top level. [__GNUC_PREREQ (7, 0)]: Ignore -Wrestrict and -Wstringop-overflow= at top level. [__GNUC_PREREQ (8, 0)]: Ignore -Wstringop-truncation at top level. (test_stpncpy): Do not ignore warnings here. (test_strncat): Likewise. (test_strncpy): Likewise. (test_memset): Likewise.
