I don't think there is anything other than the official documentations for each listing
all the warning options. I know each version has its own documentation
for comparing warnings between releases but that is obviously tedious.

The clang -Wall question is easy enough to answer based on the test
case:

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-16.0.0/clang/test/Misc/warning-wall.c
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-15.0.0/clang/test/Misc/warning-wall.c
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-14.0.0/clang/test/Misc/warning-wall.c
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-13.0.0/clang/test/Misc/warning-wall.c
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-12.0.0/clang/test/Misc/warning-wall.c
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-11.0.0/clang/test/Misc/warning-wall.c

Clang has a tool, diagtool, that can print information about -Wextra,
but I do not ship it with the kernel.org LLVM releases, nor does Debian
it seems. On a recent clang-17 (the colors don't matter for this
exercise):

$ diagtool tree -Wextra

GREEN = enabled by default
YELLOW = disabled by default
RED = unimplemented (accepted for GCC compatibility)

-Wextra
  -Wdeprecated-copy
    -Wdeprecated-copy-with-user-provided-copy
  -Wmissing-field-initializers
  -Wignored-qualifiers
    -Wignored-reference-qualifiers
  -Winitializer-overrides
  -Wsemicolon-before-method-body
  -Wmissing-method-return-type
  -Wsign-compare
  -Wunused-parameter
  -Wunused-but-set-parameter
  -Wnull-pointer-arithmetic
    -Wgnu-null-pointer-arithmetic
  -Wnull-pointer-subtraction
  -Wempty-init-stmt
  -Wstring-concatenation
  -Wfuse-ld-path

Maybe some of that can be useful for future travelers.

Heh, that does sound like an interesting project but I am not sure I
have the bandwidth at the moment to do something like that, especially
since the number of warnings that are different between GCC and clang
are continuing to dwindle :)
