rillig | make: consistently use double quotes in error messages
Previously, some error messages used single quotes, very few used
backticks or parentheses, most already used double quotes.
While here, reword a few error messages to be clearer or more consistent
with related error messages.

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: let unknown ":O" modifiers fall back to the ":from=to" modifier
Inspired by https://bugs.freebsd.org/285726, which concerns the ":t"
modifier instead.
This means that future extensions to the ":O" modifier must not contain
a "=" anywhere, otherwise they may break existing code.

rillig | make: omit redundant follow-up message "Malformed conditional"
If there is a parse error or an evaluation error during the conditional,
the conditional is already mentioned in the "while evaluating condition"
line, so there's no reason to repeat it once again.
Same for the "Bad condition" message from the '?:' 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: in error message about conditionals, use single quotes
Single quotes are used less often in the conditionals themselves, which
leads to fewer confusions.

rillig | make: remove wrong error message about an undefined variable

rillig | make: error out on unclosed expressions during parse time
In exchange, this adds location information.
For unnamed expressions, the value is no longer printed. This will be
added back in a follow-up commit.

rillig | tests/make: add expected messages for "Unclosed expression"

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: error out on the "Bad modifier" error message
Previously, the "Bad modifier" error message did not affect make's exit
status. As a side effect, this kind of error now gets more context
information.

make: replace 'variable expression' with 'expression' in diagnostics

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 | tests/make: fix test for the variable modifier ':On'
The variable modifier ':On' sorts words numerically. If these words are
not numeric at all, they get assigned the numeric value 0. Internally,
':On' uses qsort for sorting the words. Since qsort is not specified to
use a stable sorting algorithm, the test data must only use words that
either are written in the same way or that are numerically different.
The test varmod-order failed this requirement by trying to numerically
sort a list of non-numeric words. This led to different results on BSD
and Ubuntu, as could be expected.
To fix the tests, distinguish between words and numbers in the tests.
While here, clean up the tests for all variants of the variable modifier
':O'.
Found by sjg on Ubuntu.

rillig | tests/make: split tests for the variable modifier ':O'
The tests for parse errors are now in varmod-order, which lets the other
tests focus on the desired behavior of the modifiers.

rillig | make: improve error message for bad modifier in variable expression
The improvement is especially noteable for variable expressions based on
the empty variable, see moderrs.exp:103.
|
| 1.2 |

rillig | make(1): move tests for the :Ox modifier into separate file
The test has been extended by ensuring that the shuffled words are still
the same. Comparing two shuffled lists is probabilistic, but comparing
their sorted results is not, therefore that's completely sensible to do.
When writing this test, by coincidence I discovered how to generate the
"Undefined variable" error message. Unfortunately, the error message is
wrong since the variable NUMBERS is defined at that point. In summary,
that error message is shown when it shouldn't, and when it should it is
not shown. Still, I'm glad that I finally found it.

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.
