Description
Excluding the g++ defines that start with __FLT might be fix it? Reproed with Ubuntu 24.
This is not a regression with our extension, but it doesn't repro with older g++ versions (such as g++ 10).

Research direction
Reproduce the code-analysis errors on Ubuntu 24 with g++ 14, C++20, and the limits/format headers. Start by comparing the diagnostics involving g++ defines beginning with __FLT against behavior with g++ 10; done means the clang-diagnostic-error messages no longer appear without breaking analysis.
