Going forward, is there an easy way to preview the effect of this kind
of change (e.g., to run "make style" on the entire codebase so as to be
able to compare the result with two different versions of
.clang-format)?

I just ran clang-format before and after the patch and pushed to github.
The resulting diff is quite big:

PS: There should be a comment at the beginning of the .clang-format file
that says what version it is tested with (on my machine it worked with
5.0 but not with 4.0) and there should also probably a remark that the
clang-format-based style should only be understood as a hint or guidance
and that most of the Git codebase does not conform it.
