 1.11  14-Sep-2025  rillig lint: do not preserve bit-field information in integer promotions

The bit-field information was wrongly added back in 2021. At that time,
the integer constraints had not been implemented yet, so it was a
straight-forward idea to implement value restrictions using the type
system and propagage these through the expressions.

Due to preserving the bit-field information, some lint warnings
contained wrong type information. These warnings are now fixed.
 1.10  14-Sep-2025  rillig lint: add more type details to several messages

In most expressions, the integer promotions are performed on the
operands, making the actual type different from the "visible" type of an
operand. To properly explain the situation, mention the type before the
integer promotions in case it differs from the resulting type.
 1.9  20-Feb-2025  rillig lint: support __attribute__((__mode__(TI)))

This fixes the wrong lint warnings about the shift amount being greater
than the type size in compiler_rt/popcountti2.c.
 1.8  12-Mar-2024  rillig branches: 1.8.2;
lint: fix warning about loss of conversion for unsigned bit-fields

Since decl.c 1.180 from 2021-05-02.
 1.7  07-Jul-2023  rillig lint: warn about function definitions without header declaration

The existing warning was only issued for function declarations, not for
function definitions.

The interesting change in the tests is in msg_351.c. Many other tests
use non-static functions due to their syntactic brevity. In these
tests, the warning is disabled individually, to allow new functions to
be added without generating warning 351.
 1.6  19-Aug-2022  rillig lint: add more details to message about large bit-shifts
 1.5  19-Aug-2022  rillig tests/lint: demonstrate wrong warning about bit-shift
 1.4  16-Jun-2022  rillig tests/lint: add more details to messages in msg_200 until msg_299

Add some tests that were previously empty. Some other tests are still
empty.
 1.3  09-Apr-2021  rillig tests/lint: test bit-shift amount equal to the type's width
 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.
