Wrap C APIs with pragmas enforcing -Werror=strict-prototypes

Summary

Force -Werror=strict-prototypes so that C API tests fail to compile if
we add a non-prototype declaration. This should help avoid regressions
like bddecba4b333f7772029b4937d2c34f9f2fda6ca was fixing.

Note that we have C files including these headers in llvm/tools/llvm-c-test and clang/tools/c-index-test, and I tested that dropping a (void) to just () triggers the error when compiling those.

I think this needs some extra compiler guards, unfortunately. I don't think MSVC supports _Pragma (IIRC, they rather oddly decided to call it __pragma instead). Do we want to restrict this pragma to only clang compilers? Do we need to do something to support GCC as well?

Adding guards for _MSC_VER.

Thanks for pointing this out; guarded against _MSC_VER in the updated diff.

Supporting GCC as a follow-up sounds nice to me if someone is interested in sorting that out, but covering it in Clang like this is sufficient to get our bots to reject commits that regress.

s/C_STRING_PROTOTYPES_/C_STRICT_PROTOTYPES_/ to fix some typos.

lgtm as long as other compilers don't warn on unknown pragmas by default.

lgtm as long as other compilers don't warn on unknown pragmas by default.

godbolt.org says that GCC doesn't have -Wunknown-pragmas by default, but it is in -Wall. I'd better guard this more closely with __clang__.
