formatting as any other diagnostic, they will be properly line wrapped and
otherwise pretty printed. Let's take advantage of that and the new factoring to
add some helpful information to them (much like template backtrace notes and
other notes): the name of the macro whose expansion is being noted. This makes
a world of difference if caret diagnostics are disabled, making the expansion
notes actually useful in this case. It also helps ensure that in edge cases the
information the user needs is present. Consider:
% nl -ba t5.cc
1 #define M(x, y, z) \
2 y
3
4 M(
5 1,
6 2,
7 3);
We now produce:
% ./bin/clang -fsyntax-only t5.cc
t5.cc:6:3: error: expected unqualified-id
2,
^
t5.cc:2:3: note: expanded from macro: M
y
^
1 error generated.
Without the added information in the note, the name of the macro being expanded
would never be shown.
This also deletes a FIXME to use the diagnostic formatting. It's not yet clear
to me that we *can* do this reasonably, and the production of this message was
my primary goal here anyways.
I'd love any comments or suggestions on improving these notes, their wording,
etc. Currently, I need to make them provide more helpful information in the
presence of a token-pasting buffer, and I'm pondering adding something along
the lines of "expanded from argument N of macro: ...".

standing deficiency: we were providing no macro backtrace information
whenever caret diagnostics were turned off. This sinks the logic for
suppressing the code snippet and caret to the code that actually prints
tho code snippet and caret. Along the way, clean up the naming of
functions, remove some now fixed FIXMEs, and generally improve the
wording and logic of this process.
Add a test case exerecising this functionality. It is notable that the
resulting messages are extremely low quality. I'm working on a follow-up
patch that should address this and have left a FIXME in the test case.

the important code in this test to make the test more stable. Now adding
further tests won't shift the line numbers occuring in the diagnostic
output.
