[analyzer] Deprecate FAM analyzer-config, recommend -fstrict-flex-arrays instead
By default, clang assumes that all trailing array objects could be a FAM. So, an array of undefined size, size 0, size 1, or even size 42 is considered as FAMs for optimizations at least. One needs to override the default behavior by supplying the `-fstrict-flex-arrays=<N>` flag, with `N > 0` value to reduce the set of FAM candidates. Value `3` is the most restrictive and `0` is the most permissive on this scale. 0: all trailing arrays are FAMs 1: only incomplete, zero and one-element arrays are FAMs 2: only incomplete, zero-element arrays are FAMs 3: only incomplete arrays are FAMs If the user is happy with consdering single-element arrays as FAMs, they just need to remove the `consider-single-element-arrays-as-flexible-array-members` from the command line. Otherwise, if they don't want to recognize such cases as FAMs, they should specify `-fstrict-flex-arrays` anyway, which will be picked up by CSA. Any use of the deprecated analyzer-config value will trigger a warning explaining what to use instead. The `-analyzer-config-help` is updated accordingly.
