SERVER-28691 Disable MSVC warning C4373
The MSVC compiler has warnings which alert users that the behavior
of the compiler has changed. In the case of C4383, the compiler
used to have non-conforming behavior to C++98. At some point this
behavior was fixed. MongoDB's code base should not have any code
which would be adversely affected by this change, as the code is
also compiled on platforms where the native compiler is conformant
to the standard in this point. Therefore it should be safe to
disable this warning.
The specific warning cautions that a derived class's inline
definition of a virtual function will now override a parent's
implementation, where formerly it would not. This would happen
when the derived class's implementation specified at least one
of the parameters `const` (in such a way that the actual signature
of the function isn't changed). MSVC incorrectly determines that
if there are two functions that differ only in a non-observable
`const` specifier, then they would have different signatures, in
many circumstances. This would mean that the compiler resorts to
treating such functions as overloads. The compiler now behaves
correctly for the case of override in a derived class; however,
it issues a warning. The warning is irrelevant to us.
