Disable spurious -Warray-bounds for ypclnt.c (bug 26687)
Included among the GCC 11 warnings listed in bug 26687, but not fixed
when that bug was marked as FIXED, are -Warray-bounds warnings in
nis/ypclnt.c.  These are all for different calls to the same piece of
code, which already has a comment explaining that the element accessed
is in a common prefix of the various structures.  On the basis of that
comment, this patch treats the warning as a false positive and
disables it for that code.

Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for arm-linux-gnueabi, where,
together with my previous two patches, this allows the build of glibc
to complete with GCC 11 (further build failures appear in the
testsuite).
