Summary: Just like templates, they are excepted from the ODR rule.

Summary:
I've found that most often the proper way to fix this warning is to add
`static`, because if the code otherwise compiles and links, the function
or variable is apparently not needed outside of the TU.
We can't provide a fix-it hint for variable declarations, because
multiple VarDecls can share the same type, and if we put static in front
of that, we affect all declared variables, some of which might have
previous declarations.
We also provide no fix-it hint for the rare case of an `extern` function
definition, because that would require removing `extern` and I have no
idea how to get the source location of the storage class specifier from
a FunctionDecl. I believe this information is only available earlier in
the AST construction from DeclSpec::getStorageClassSpecLoc(), but we
don't have that here.

We shouldn't throw a warning when the static keyword is not present in
an anonymous namespace, just like we do for -Wmissing-prototypes.
