Summary

This patch amends D151590 to not error for unlaimed TargetSpecific
options for -x assembler input files. This input type causes Driver to
construct tools::ClangAs (-fintegrated-as) or other assemblers (e.g.
tools::gnutools::Assembler) Their ConstructJobs methods, unlike
Clang::ConstructJobs, claim very few options. If an option is unclaimed,
it either leads to a -Wunused-command-line-argument warning or an error
(if TargetSpecific is set):

% clang '-###' --target=aarch64 -mbranch-protection=bti -c a.s
clang: error: unsupported option '-mbranch-protection=' for target 'aarch64'

It seems that downgrading the diagnostic to warning is most useful as
many users use CFLAGS even for .s files:

clang --target=aarch64 -mbranch-protection=bti -S a.c
clang --target=aarch64 -mbranch-protection=bti -c a.s

I decide not to suppress the warning so that
-Wunused-command-line-argument lovers still get a warning, and help
projects use proper ASFLAGS/CFLAGS/etc.

Note: -mbranch-protection=bti a.S currently has no warning as -x assembler-with-cpp
instructs clangDriver to select tools::Clang and claim most options.

Revert D159010 to demonstrate that we emit a warning for -mfpmath= for
-x assembler input.

Modify my AIX cleanup cd18efb61d759405956dbd30e4b5f2720d8e1783 to
add an err_drv_unsupported_opt_for_target.

Planned for main and release/17.x
