RFA: let __extension__ suppress overlength string warning


SystemTap has some macros that can cause long strings to be generated.
See:

    http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12137

The usual system header exception does not suppress the
overlength-string warning here because the string results from a macro
expansion.  While Dodji's pending patch series promises to be able to
fix this, it seemed to me that __extension__ should also be able to do
this directly.

This patch changes the C parser to suppress the -Woverlength-strings
warning when the string is preceded by __extension__.

Built and regtested on x86-64 (compile farm).
New tests included.

Ok?

If approved, I assume I need to wait for stage 1 to commit this.
