Add an extension to avoid an error when a global template has the same name as
a member template, and you try to call the member template with an explicit template argument. See PR7247 For example, this downgrades the error to a warning in: template<typename T> struct set{}; struct Value { template<typename T> void set(T value) { } }; void foo() { Value v; v.set<double>(3.2); // Warning here. } git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@105518 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

+Warn about unqualified uses of a member template whose name resolves
+to another template at the location of the use.</dt>
+<dd>This option, which defaults to on, enables a warning in the
+following code:</p>
+
+<pre>
+template&lt;typename T> struct set{};
+template&lt;typename T> struct trait { typedef const T& type; };
+struct Value {
+ template&lt;typename T> void set(typename trait&lt;T>::type value) {}
+};
+void foo() {
+ Value v;
+ v.set&lt;double>(3.2);
+}
+</pre>
+
+<p>C++ [basic.lookup.classref] requires this to be an error, but,
+because it's hard to work around, Clang downgrades it to a warning as
+an extension.</p>
