Clang recently added '-fms-anonymous-structs' [1] to specifically enable the Microsoft tagged anonymous structure / union extension, for which the kernel added '-fms-extensions' in commitc4781dc3d1("Kbuild: enable -fms-extensions"). Switch to this more narrow option if it is available, which would have helped avoid the issue addressed by commita6773e6932("jfs: Rename _inline to avoid conflict with clang's '-fms-extensions'"). GCC has talked about adding a similar flag [2] as well but potentially naming it differently. Move the selection of the flag to Kconfig to make it easier to use cc-option (as CC_FLAGS_DIALECT may be used in arch Makefiles, which may be too early for cc-option in Kbuild) and customize based on compiler flag names.
