Description
- Node Version: All
- Platform: Win 10
- Compiler: Clang (clang-cli or clang)
- Module: All
How can we use Clang on Windows to build native modules? I want to use a single open-source compiler for all the platforms. Writing compiler flags for each compiler is not efficient, and they also may have different performance.

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing node-gyp's Windows compiler configuration and the two linked issues, then determine the required Clang support and compiler-flag behavior; done means native modules build successfully with Clang on Windows.
