Description:
xdr_utils.h contains several macros, which provide function declarations/definitions, for example def_init_xdr_array.

These methods could be possibly unused in the RelWithDebInfo configuration.

How to repeat:
Compile MYSQL 5.7 with clang/RelWithDebInfo

Suggested fix:
Mark methods as MY_ATTRIBUTE((unused))

Added unused attribute to the macros
