c++: Add -Wno-changes-meaning
In recent years this error has been coming up more because other compilers don't diagnose it as consistently. So let's add a flag for it, and be more lenient about cases that aren't likely to cause bugs. gcc/ChangeLog: * doc/invoke.texi: Document -Wno-changes-meaning. gcc/c-family/ChangeLog: * c.opt: Add -Wno-changes-meaning. gcc/cp/ChangeLog: * class.cc (note_name_declared_in_class): Change from permerror to -Wchanges-meaning pedwarn, forcing -pedantic-errors for most cases. gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog: * g++.dg/warn/changes-meaning2.C: New test. * g++.dg/warn/changes-meaning3.C: New test.

+@item -Wno-changes-meaning @r{(C++ and Objective-C++ only)}
+C++ requires that unqualified uses of a name within a class have the
+same meaning in the complete scope of the class, so declaring the name
+after using it is ill-formed:
+@smallexample
+struct A;
+struct B1 @{ A a; typedef A A; @}; // warning, 'A' changes meaning
+struct B2 @{ A a; struct A @{ @}; @}; // error, 'A' changes meaning
+@end smallexample
+By default, the B1 case is only a warning because the two declarations
+have the same type, while the B2 case is an error. Both diagnostics
+can be disabled with @option{-Wno-changes-meaning}. Alternately, the
+error case can be reduced to a warning with
+@option{-Wno-error=changes-meaning} or @option{-fpermissive}.
+
+Both diagnostics are also suppressed by @option{-fms-extensions}.
