rillig | make: use '"filename" line 123' for locations instead of 'filename:123'
The format 'filename:123' is commonly used for identifying a location in
a file. Text editors recognize it and allow quick navigation through it.
The previous format was specific to make and would have required custom
support in editors.
The new format was already used in stack traces, except for the first
line. Now all lines use the same format.

rillig | make: add ":" to error message about unknown modifier
In the manual page, the modifiers are listed with a preceding ":", so
use the same pattern in the error message. This removes an inconsistency
between the error messages "Unknown modifier" and "Bad modifier".

rillig | make: reduce line length in error messages
The error messages for deeply nested parse errors were hard to decipher,
due to the large amount of text. Split these messages into individual
lines, just as in the backtrace for .include files and .for loops. This
unified backtrace makes the output more uniform.

rillig | make: on error, print the targets to be made
This helps to understand situations with several nested sub-makes in
varying directories.

rillig | make: add more context information to error messages
In case of a parse error or evaluation error, print the variable value
in addition to the variable name, to see the effects of previous
expression modifiers.
In nested make calls, print the current directory at the bottom of a
stack trace, as that information is otherwise hard to get in a parallel
build spanning multiple directories.

rillig | tests/make: force line-based diagnostics to be listed in the tests
This way, contradictions between the intended output and the actual
output are closer together and have a better chance of being spotted.

rillig | make: fix reported line numbers of continuation lines (since 2002)
Previously, multi-line directives like '.info' or '.error' reported the
line number of their last line instead of their first line, which is
more usual. This also affected the debug log from '-dp'.

rillig | make: improve error message for unknown modifier
Back in 1995, the modifiers were all single-character, and it made sense
to print only the first character. Nowadays, with ':S', ':@var@...@',
'::=' and several others, a little more context is useful to see where
the exact error is. The actual modifier is still guessed, and the guess
may be wrong as soon as backslashes get involved, but it is still better
than before.

rillig | make: demonstrate inconsistency in .undef of an exported variable

rillig | make(1): allow .undef to undefine multiple variables at once
Since make doesn't support variable names containing spaces, this edge
case is not enough reason to stop this feature. Having multiple
variable names as arguments nicely aligns with other directives such as
.for and .export.

rillig | make(1): error out if .undef has not exactly 1 argument
|
| 1.3 |

rillig | make(1): error out on misspelled directives
Before, make accepted misspellings like .warnings, .export-literally and
a few others, all of which are unlikely to occur in practice. See the
test directive-misspellings.mk for further details.

rillig | make(1): add dummies for fine-grained tests, one per single feature
The test names have been derived from the current manual page.
All these tests are dummies right now, and the code from the existing
tests will be moved into the new tests step by step.
This is done to prevent modmisc, escape, varmod-edge and varmisc from
growing without any bounds, and to reduce the side-effects of one test
to the others.
