Add configuration option for `--warnings` (and maybe `--optimize-for-debug`)
Bug Report
Current behavior
arduino-cli compile has a --warnings option to enable warnings for a single compilation run.
Expected behavior
I would like to be able to set a default value for --warnings in my config file (i.e. to enable warnings on all compilations).
Environment
- CLI version (output of
arduino-cli version): recent git master - OS and platform: Linux, x86_64.

would you really want --optimize-for-debug on as a default?
I think it's kinda counterproductive unless you add it to an extra config file that you point to during heavy development days, but seems like a stretch :D
maybe we could add a -o shortcut for that flag since it's available (cc @silvanocerza )
would you really want --optimize-for-debug on as a default?
Possibly, yes. 99% (or something like that) of the uploads I do are during development, for testing, only a fraction is actually uploading a final product (and even then -Og is not really problematic). And regardless, it seems like something that would be easy to implement and the type of option that would make sense as a config directive along with enabling warnings, even if not a lot of people would end up using it.

That could also be a good idea, though I'd consider doing this in addition to adding a config option.
Maybe -d (for "debug") or -g (matching gcc) would be better, though?

living on the edge :D
I'll push for a config setting, and I think I'd go for -d to keep it closer to debug unless -d can be confusing for some reason
Sounds good, thanks!
Just realized that this also means a --no-optimize-for-debug is needed, to reverse the setting from the config file (for the 1% where you do want to make a production build).
Hi just wanted to +1 having a warnings config setting since I prefer to see them. In particular this is because the permissive flag that is passed to the compiler is downgrading some errors and then they were being squashed due to the default warnings value. An extra bonus would be if we could also have a flag/setting to prevent the permissive flag being sent to the compiler :)
