Newlib, picolibc, and probably other libc implementations, use
#define O_CREAT _FCREAT
#define O_TRUNC _FTRUNC
#define O_EXCL _FEXCL
In r17-177-g9a5f89005dc49d, support was added to identify redundant
flags, but the implementation requires that the value of the macros
O_CREAT, O_EXCL, O_RDWR to be a number. This patch extends the support
to also allow macro aliases. It will follow up to 8 levels of macros in
order to reach the number.

Ok for trunk?
I'm unsure if this should also go into releases/gcc-16, WDYT?
