glr2.cc: disable incorrect warnings from GCC6 to 9

For instance with GCC8:

    616. regression.at:1560: testing Lex and parse params: glr2.cc ...
    tests/regression.at:1560: COLUMNS=1000; export COLUMNS; NO_TERM_HYPERLINKS=1; export NO_TERM_HYPERLINKS;  bison --color=no -fno-caret  -o input.cc input.y
    tests/regression.at:1560: $CXX $CXXFLAGS $CPPFLAGS  $LDFLAGS -o input input.cc $LIBS
    stderr:
    input.cc: In member function 'YYRESULTTAG glr_stack::yyresolveValue(glr_state*)':
    input.cc:1796:10: error: potential null pointer dereference [-Werror=null-dereference]
       return yypred ? &(asItem(this) - yypred)->getState() : YY_NULLPTR;
              ^~~~~~
    input.cc:1796:10: error: potential null pointer dereference [-Werror=null-dereference]
       return yypred ? &(asItem(this) - yypred)->getState() : YY_NULLPTR;
              ^~~~~~
    cc1plus: all warnings being treated as errors

It complains that the implicit this in yypred might be null.  It fears
it because of loops such as

    for (glr_state* yys = firstTopState();
         yys != yystateStack.yysplitPoint;
         yys = yys->pred())
      yyn += 1;

that could possibly set yys to null, since yys->pred might return
null.  However, the warning is incorrect, since in C++ `this` cannot
be null.  GCC 10 no longer emits this warning.

GCC 7 also complains many times about glr_stack::yyresolveLocations
when NDEBUG is enabled (when it is not, YYASSERT (yyoption !=
YY_NULLPTR) is probably enough to pacify GCC):

    616. regression.at:1560: testing Lex and parse params: glr2.cc ...
