clang 13 added a new -Wunused-but-set-parameter warning:

https://releases.llvm.org/13.0.0/tools/clang/docs/DiagnosticsReference.html#wunused-but-set-parameter

gcc has had an -Wunused-but-set-parameter since gcc 4.6, though the few warnings I've seen from it were all false positives.

https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.6.0/gcc/Warning-Options.html

Alias: Wunused-but-set-parameter → -Wunused-but-set-parameter
Blocks: buildwarning

This change fixes the following -Wunused-but-set-parameter warning:

netwerk/test/fuzz/FuzzingStreamListener.cpp:18:49: warning: parameter 'aOffset' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-parameter]

But don't enable on gcc because it reports false positives, such as:

js/src/jsapi-tests/testJitABIcalls.cpp:445:61: warning: parameter 'lineno' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-parameter]
js/src/jsapi-tests/testJitABIcalls.cpp:461:56: warning: parameter 'base' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-parameter]

Even though those parameters are used here:

https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/js/src/jsapi-tests/testJitABIcalls.cpp#445,450,461,464

Depends on D129350
