Disable strncat test array-bounds warnings for GCC 8 [committed]

- Subject: Disable strncat test array-bounds warnings for GCC 8 [committed]
- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
Some strncat tests fail to build with GCC 8 because of -Warray-bounds
warnings. These tests are deliberately test over-large size arguments
passed to strncat, and already disable -Wstringop-overflow warnings,
but now the warnings for these tests come under -Warray-bounds so that
option needs disabling for them as well, which this patch does (with
an update on the comments; the DIAG_IGNORE_NEEDS_COMMENT call for
-Warray-bounds doesn't need to be conditional itself, because that
option is supported by all versions of GCC that can build glibc).
Tested compilation with build-many-glibcs.py for aarch64-linux-gnu.
Committed.

* string/tester.c (test_strncat): Also disable -Warray-bounds
warnings for two tests.
