C11 comes with support for _Static_assert(). This adds support for it by simply compiling it away.

I'm wondering if maybe we should do constant folding for the static assert expressions. After all, aren't they supposed to be constant-foldable?
It might be useful for catching some CIL bugs or inconsistencies where we fail to meet the static assertions demanded by the code, even when compiling with GCC they succeed. Aren't static assertions exactly for all kinds of sizeof, etc checks?
Because if we don't even pass the static assertions, then it's quite likely that we would end up analyzing code under completely wrong assumptions about certain types, making the results quite bogus.

Maybe we should add this as an issue, for now I think it is not absolutely critical to translate them to CIL where we would then be in a position to do constant folding.

Yeah, I think we can leave it for another issue to at least get parsing to pass.
