Reapplication of 7339c0f782d5c70e0928f8991b0c05338a90c84c with a fix for a crash involving arrays without a size expression. Clang supports VLAs in C++ as an extension, but we currently only warn on their use when you pass -Wvla, -Wvla-extension, or -pedantic. However, VLAs as they're expressed in C have been considered by WG21 and rejected, are easy to use accidentally to the surprise of users (e.g., https://ddanilov.me/default-non-standard-features/), and they have potential security implications beyond constant-size arrays (https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/display/c/ARR32-C.+Ensure+size+arguments+for+variable+length+arrays+are+in+a+valid+range). C++ users should strongly consider using other functionality such as std::vector instead. This seems like sufficiently compelling evidence to warn users about VLA use by default in C++ modes. This patch enables the -Wvla-extension diagnostic group in C++ language modes by default, and adds the warning group to -Wall in GNU++ language modes. The warning is still opt-in in C language modes, where support for VLAs is somewhat less surprising to users.
