config.mak.dev: re-enable -Wformat-zero-length
We recently triggered some -Wformat-zero-length warnings in the code, but no developers noticed because we suppress that warning in builds with the DEVELOPER=1 Makefile knob set. But we _don't_ suppress them in a non-developer build (and they're part of -Wall). So even though non-developers probably aren't using -Werror, they see the annoying warnings when they build. We've had back and forth discussion over the years on whether this warning is useful or not. In most cases we've seen, it's not true that the call is a mistake, since we're using its side effects (like adding a newline status_printf_ln()) or writing an empty string to a destination which is handled by the function (as in write_file()). And so we end up working around it in the source by passing ("%s", ""). There's more discussion in the subthread starting at: https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqtwaod7ly.fsf@gitster.mtv.corp.google.com/ The short of it is that we probably can't just disable the warning for everybody because of portability issues. And ignoring it for developers puts us in the situation we're in now, where non-dev builds are annoyed. Since the workaround is both rarely needed and fairly straight-forward, let's just commit to doing it as necessary, and re-enable the warning.
