The assumption attribute is exposed with a Clang spelling, which means we 
support __attribute__((assume)) as well as [[clang::assume]] as spellings for 
the attribute.

In C++, the [[clang::assume]] spelling worked as expected. In C, that spelling 
would emit an "unknown attribute ignored" diagnostic. This was happening 
because we were failing to pass in the scope name and source location when 
creating the attribute. In C++, this worked by chance because [[assume]] is a 
known attribute in C++. But in C, where there is thankfully no [[assume]] 
standard attribute, the lack of a scope meant we would set the attribute kind 
to "unknown".

 - Added the existing ``-Wduplicate-decl-specifier`` diagnostic, which is on by
   default, to ``-Wc++-compat`` because duplicated declaration specifiers are
   not valid in C++.
+- The ``[[clang::assume()]]`` attribute is now correctly recognized in C. The
+  ``__attribute__((assume()))`` form has always been supported, so the fix is
+  specific to the attribute syntax used.
