Comment (by gershomb):
I definitely think it shouldn't be in the default warning set.
I suspect making an "advisory" category is too late for 8.0. But I think
keeping -Wredundant-constraints out of -Wall for now is the right thing.
Any future refactors of the hierarchy will also still trip it up, so in
the future we should probably move it into -Wall and then follow nomeata's
suggestion of modifying the policy to be `-Wall -Wno-redundant-
constraints` clean.
