Douglas Gregor 87f95b0a6a Introduce code modification hints into the diagnostics system. When we
know how to recover from an error, we can attach a hint to the
diagnostic that states how to modify the code, which can be one of:

  - Insert some new code (a text string) at a particular source
    location
  - Remove the code within a given range
  - Replace the code within a given range with some new code (a text
    string)

Right now, we use these hints to annotate diagnostic information. For
example, if one uses the '>>' in a template argument in C++98, as in
this code:

  template<int I> class B { };
  B<1000 >> 2> *b1;

we'll warn that the behavior will change in C++0x. The fix is to
insert parenthese, so we use code insertion annotations to illustrate
where the parentheses go:

test.cpp:10:10: warning: use of right-shift operator ('>>') in template
argument will require parentheses in C++0x
  B<1000 >> 2> *b1;
         ^
    (        )


Use of these annotations is partially implemented for HTML
diagnostics, but it's not (yet) producing valid HTML, which may be
related to PR2386, so it has been #if 0'd out.

In this future, we could consider hooking this mechanism up to the
rewriter to actually try to fix these problems during compilation (or,
after a compilation whose only errors have fixes). For now, however, I
suggest that we use these code modification hints whenever we can, so
that we get better diagnostics now and will have better coverage when
we find better ways to use this information.

This also fixes PR3410 by placing the complaint about missing tokens
just after the previous token (rather than at the location of the next
token).

Chris Lattner 7a51313d8a Make a major restructuring of the clang tree: introduce a top-level
lib dir and move all the libraries into it.  This follows the main
llvm tree, and allows the libraries to be built in parallel.  The
top level now enforces that all the libs are built before Driver,
but we don't care what order the libs are built in.  This speeds
up parallel builds, particularly incremental ones.
