The <https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/2022-May/238679.html> thread seems to have concluded that -Wformat shouldn't warn about
printf((const char*) u8"test %d\n", 1); saying "format string is not an array of type 'char'". This code is not an aliasing violation, and there are no I/O functions for u8 strings, so the const char * cast is OK and shouldn't be disregarded. Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, ok for trunk?
