[C2y] Add octal prefixes, deprecate unprefixed octals (#131626)
WG14 N3353 added support for 0o and 0O as octal literal prefixes. It
also deprecates use of octal literals without a prefix, except for the
literal 0.

This feature is being exposed as an extension in older C language modes
as well as in all C++ language modes.

C language Family Front-end

Welcome to Clang.

This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages (C, C++ and Objective-C) which is built as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project.

Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of different source-level tools. One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.

If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read the relevant websites. Here are some pointers:
