Upgrade -Wunused-but-set-variable to W=3 to avoid the build robots

"This warning for garbage code" you mean?

By promoting it to W=3 the robots will no longer report it and people
will no longer attempt to fix them by making the code worse.

Instead, they will not see such warnings, and make the code worse.
