valgrind currently does not work on GCC -O2 compiled executables, which
contain std::optional use, due to an upstream bug. See
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=472329
One workaround could be to use -O1. However, that seems brittle, as
variantions of the bug were seen with -O1 as well.
So temporarily use clang in the valgrind CI tasks, because this also
allows to drop a false-positive suppression for:
-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS='-Wno-error=array-bounds'
Also, update the comment in contrib/valgrind.supp to mention the
background:
* GCC -O2 wasn't tested with the suppressions file, due to the mentioned
bug.
* Clang-17 (or later) on aarch64 wasn't tested due to bug
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/29635 and the minimum
supported clang version is clang-17 right now.
* GUI isn't tested, because it requires a debug build, see the prior
commit.
This means the only tested config right now is the one mentioned in the
suppression file.
