Summary:                    CHECK_COMPILER_FLAG_COMMON_PATTERNS doesn't match
clang-cl's unknown argument warning
Description: 
These are the patterns that cmake appears to be looking for to spot unsupported
options:
     FAIL_REGEX "unknown .*option"                          # Clang
     FAIL_REGEX "optimization flag .* not supported"        # Clang

But we actually have two other diagnostics, one of which needs to be matched:
def err_drv_unknown_argument : Error<"unknown argument: '%0'">;
def warn_drv_unknown_argument_clang_cl : Warning<
  "unknown argument ignored in clang-cl: '%0'">,
  InGroup<UnknownArgument>;

The first is an error diagnostic, so you don't need to match it. We added the
second because MSVC ignores unknown flags, and clang-cl needs to do the same. We
chose the text for consistency with the error diagnostic.

Steps to Reproduce: 
Have this in a cmake project:
check_cxx_compiler_flag(-not-a-real-flag IS_REAL_FLAG)

Configure the project with clang-cl as the compiler.

Observe that IS_REAL_FLAG is ON.

Additional Information: 
This came up while I was trying to build asan with clang-cl.
