These C++11 annotations are useful for detecting programming errors.  We've gained a lot of utility from these in the Chromium repo, and I've locally written plenty of bugs that these would catch.

MSVS2005, recent clangs, and GCC 4.7+ support these annotations.  We should be able to define these annotations as no-ops on other compilers and still get broad coverage from developers and across the buildbots.
