Description

Input C/C++ Header
#include <stdio.h>
Bindgen Invocation
 bindgen ./test.h -o test.rs  -- --target=wasm32-unknown-unknown

stdlib.h, inttypes.h, string.h, assert.h also have the same problem

Actual Results
./test.h:1:10: fatal error: 'stdio.h' file not found
panicked at bindgen-cli/main.rs:52:36:
Unable to generate bindings: ClangDiagnostic("./test.h:1:10: fatal error: 'stdio.h' file not found\n")
Expected Results

No errors and compiled successfully

Research direction

Reproduce the failure with test.h containing <cstdio.h> and the bindgen command using --target=wasm32-unknown-unknown; inspect the diagnostic path referenced at bindgen-cli/main.rs:52. Done means the standard headers resolve for this target and bindings generate without the reported stdio.h, stdlib.h, inttypes.h, string.h, or assert.h errors.
