FWIW, Clang implements this warning:

$ xclang++ -c -xc j.c -Wduplicate-enum
j.c:1:33: warning: element 'foo' has been implicitly assigned 0 which another
element has been assigned [-Wduplicate-enum]
enum status { ok = 0, err = -1, foo, bar };
                                ^~~
j.c:1:15: note: element 'ok' also has value 0
enum status { ok = 0, err = -1, foo, bar };
              ^~~~~~

I suppose we could do a binary search when adding a new enumerator in
build_enumerator, see if an enumerator with the same value is already present,
and warn if so.

Oh, I was unable to find the option (only tried -Werror and -Wextra).

Should be way to disable/enable this warning per `enum`?
Like:

```
enum [[gnu::enum_unique]] X
{
  I = 1,
  J = 2,
};

enum [[gnu::enum_not_unique]] Y
{
  K = 1,
  L = 1,
};

```

No, it should warn solely if enumerator gets implicitly assigned value of some
other enumerator.  After all, the clang wording also mentions that:
element 'D' has been implicitly assigned 5 which another element has been
assigned [-Wduplicate-enum]
If there is = value for it, we should never warn, that is most likely
completely intentional.
Of course, we should use better wording, because we should talk about
enumerators, not elements...
