 1.9  12-Apr-2025  rillig lint: s/illegal/invalid/g

Lint does not provide legal advice.
 1.8  28-Mar-2023  rillig branches: 1.8.2;
lint: warn about extern declarations outside headers

 1.7  12-May-2022  rillig lint: fix support for __alignof__, add support for __alignof

Broken since lex.c 1.129 from yesterday.
 1.6  12-May-2022  rillig tests/lint: adjust tests to reflect missing support of __alignof__

The change in lex.c 1.129 attempted to add support for __alignof, in
addition to the existing support for __alignof__. It failed by removing
support for __alignof__, while allowing the plain 'alignof' instead.
 1.5  02-Apr-2022  rillig lint: remove unreachable message 'compiler takes alignment of function'
 1.4  01-Apr-2022  rillig lint: add type details to message about 'sizeof(function)'

The code in add_function is severely broken, it mixes up the return type
of the function with the argument types. For now, at least show the
guessed type in the diagnostic, to allow human readers quickly spot the
bug.

Extend the test cases in decl_direct_abstract.c to show that the
behavior differs unreasonably if the first parameter of the function is
equal to its return type.
 1.3  26-Aug-2021  rillig tests/lint: add tests for several messages
 1.2  21-Feb-2021  rillig lint: force each test to declare the expected diagnostics

By listing the expected diagnostics directly at the code that triggers
the diagnostics, it is easier to cross-check whether the diagnostics
make sense.

No functional change to lint itself.
 1.1  02-Jan-2021  rillig lint: add a test for each message produced by lint1

Having a test for each message ensures that upcoming refactorings don't
break the basic functionality. Adding the tests will also discover
previously unknown bugs in lint.

The tests ensure that every lint message can actually be triggered, and
they demonstrate how to do so. Having a separate file for each test
leaves enough space for documenting historical anecdotes, rationale or
edge cases, keeping them away from the source code.

The interesting details of this commit are in Makefile and
t_integration.sh. All other files are just auto-generated.

When running the tests as part of ATF, they are packed together as a
single test case. Conceptually, it would have been better to have each
test as a separate test case, but ATF quickly becomes very slow as soon
as a test program defines too many test cases, and 50 is already too
many. The time complexity is O(n^2), not O(n) as one would expect.
It's the same problem as in tests/usr.bin/make, which has over 300 test
cases as well.
