Clang (22.1.8 on the host, 14.0.6 in the Debian VM) now builds the tree
warning-free with --enable-warnings, in-tree and out-of-tree, with -j, and
the full VM battery passes with CC=clang: 12/12. ASan/UBSan builds run the
real tool paths (mkfs, check, tune, resize, rollback save/restore/reject)
with halt_on_error and report zero errors. Documented in tests/vm/RESULTS.md;
the CI gained clang+warnings, out-of-tree and sanitizer jobs.

Fixes found by this work:

- reiserfscore/Makefile.am: reiserfs_err.c and reiserfs_err.h shared one
  recipe. With -j, make runs the recipe once per stale target, so two
  compile_et invocations race: one deletes reiserfs_err.c ("no input
  files") while another job compiles it. Attached the recipe to
  reiserfs_err.c only; reiserfs_err.h merely depends on it. Reproduced
  with clang+ASan, stable across 5 clang / 3 asan / 3 gcc parallel builds.

- reiserfscore/Makefile.am: the rule read the source-local
  reiserfs_err.et, so VPATH builds could not find it. Use $(srcdir)/.
  make distcheck now passes.

- reiserfscore/reiserfslib.c: reiserfs_close() did fsync(fs->fs_dev) after
  reiserfs_free() released fs -- a 4-byte heap-use-after-free, flagged
  exactly at reiserfslib.c:406/407 by ASan (found by clang+ASan; gcc never
  caught it because the freed heap usually still holds the old value).
  Moved fsync before the free; reiserfs_flush() has already written
  journal and dirty buffers at that point and free_buffers() never
  writes, so the ordering preserves durability semantics.

- fsck/semantic_check.c, fsck/semantic_rebuild.c: three %K arguments passed
  &tmp_deh->deh2_dir_id where a struct reiserfs_key * is expected. It
  printed the right values only because deh2_dir_id sits at offset 4 and
  the key is read from the pointer as if dir_id sat at offset 0. Build a
  proper local key with set_key_dirid()/set_key_objectid() (the same
  idiom debugreiserfs/scan.c already uses). Verified -Waddress-of-packed-
  member (clang-only) is gone and output is unchanged.

- reiserfscore/hashes.c: four unreachable *(int *)0 = 0 stores (guarded by
  len >= 16/12/8/4 tests that cannot hold after the while (len >= 16)
  loop, len <= 15). Removed; clang's -Wnull-dereference goes quiet.
  Behavior verified: keyed_hash/yura_hash/r5_hash outputs for 16 inputs
  from 0 to 17 bytes are byte-identical before and after.

run_in_vm.sh: propagate CC into the guest, force a remount of /mnt/data
(the host rewrites the backing file under the guest), exclude generated
reiserfs_err.[ch] from the source tar. run_tests.sh: report which compiler
the battery actually used.

Build dependencies: a C compiler, autoconf, automake, libtool, pkg-config,
libcom_err (com_err development files) and, optionally, libuuid.
Supported compilers: gcc and clang. Both build warning-free with
./configure --enable-warnings && make (i.e. -Wall -Wextra).
Out-of-tree (separate build directory) and parallel (-j) builds are
supported. Sanitizer builds are exercised in CI:
