This flag was introduced by

    commit 6818991d71

  Add clang-cc option '-analyzer-opt-analyze-nested-blocks' to treat
  block literals as an entry point for analyzer checks.

The last reference was removed by this commit:

  [analyzer] Add blocks and ObjC messages to the call graph.
  This paves the road for constructing a better function dependency graph.
  If we analyze a function before the functions it calls and inlines,
  there is more opportunity for optimization.
  Note, we add call edges to the called methods that correspond to
  function definitions (declarations with bodies).

Consequently, we should remove this dead flag.
However, this arises a couple of burning questions.
 - Should the `cc1` frontend still accept this flag - to keep
   tools/users passing this flag directly to `cc1` (which is unsupported,
   unadvertised) working.
 - If we should remain backward compatible, how long?
 - How can we get rid of deprecated and obsolete flags at some point?
