We should use -ffixit and --update to clean files with duplicate

Clang does not like this:
template <typename D>
struct basic_symbol : D
{
basic_symbol();
};
struct by_type {};
struct symbol_type : basic_symbol<by_type>

symbol_type(){}
};
It gives:

The same applies for the basic_symbol's destructor and `clear()`.

This triggered one failure in the test suite:

compile the generated headers in other compilation units than the
parser's.
Add a variant type to make sure that basic_symbol and symbol_type are
properly generated in this case.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (basic_symbol): Inline the definitions of the
destructor and of `clear` in the class definition.
Avoid duplicate warnings about %error-verbose, once for deprecation,

Currently, on
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
%%
exp:;
we issue:
foo.y:1.9-25: warning: deprecated directive, use '%define api.parser.class {Parser}' [-Wdeprecated]
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
foo.y:2.9-25: warning: deprecated directive, use '%define api.parser.class {Parser}' [-Wdeprecated]

Let's get rid of the second warning about the deprecated variable
parser_class_name. This is noise, but it will also be a problem with
fixits for removing duplicates, as we will first generate the update,
and then it's too late to remove it: fixits do not edit the result of
previous fixits.
So generate this instead:
foo.y:1.1-34: warning: deprecated directive, use '%define api.parser.class {Parser}' [-Wdeprecated]
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
foo.y:2.1-34: error: %define variable 'api.parser.class' redefined

have to complain about a duplicate definition.

Currently the diagnostics for %name-prefix are not precise enough. In
particular, they does not show that braces must be used instead of
quotes.
Before:
foo.y:3.1-14: warning: deprecated directive, use '%define api.prefix' [-Wdeprecated]
%name-prefix = "foo"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
After:
foo.y:3.1-20: warning: deprecated directive, use '%define api.prefix {foo}' [-Wdeprecated]
%name-prefix = "foo"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To do this we need the value passed to %name-prefix, so move the
warning from the scanner to the parser.
Accuracy will be very important for the forthcoming changes.
* src/parse-gram.y (do_name_prefix): New.
(PERCENT_NAME_PREFIX): Have a semantic value: the raw source, with
possibly underscores, equal sign, and spaces. This is used to provide
a more accurate message. It does not take comments into account,
but...
* src/scan-gram.l (%name-prefix): Delegate the warnings to the parser.
* tests/headers.at, tests/input.at: Adjust expectations.
* src/muscle-tab.c (muscle_percent_variable_update): Avoid allocating
memory when it is not needed, which should be most of the time (when
there's no update to perform).
Adjust callers.

Rename the variable as 'range' instead of 'slice'.
There are many macros that are defined and used just
once (b4_public_if, b4_abstract_if, etc.). That's overkill. Rather,
let's define a macro to build the "public class YYParser" line.
It appears that the same syntax with "extends", "abstract", etc. is
implemented in the D parser, which looks very fishy...
* data/skeletons/d.m4, data/skeletons/java.m4 (b4_public_if)

Commit 90a8537e62 was right, but issued
two error messages. Commit 80ef7e7639
tried to address that by mapping yychar and yytoken to empty, but that
completely breaks the invariants of glr.c. In particular, yygetToken
can be called repeatedly and is expected to return the latest result,
unless yytoken is YYEMPTY. Since the previous attempt was "recording"
that the token was coming from an exception by setting it to YYEMPTY,
instead of getting again the faulty token, we fetched another one.
Rather, revert to the first approach: map yytoken to "invalid token",
but record in yychar the fact that we come from an exception thrown in
the scanner.
* data/skeletons/glr.c (YYFAULTYTOK): New.
(yygetToken): Use it to record syntax errors from the scanner.
* tests/c++.at (Syntax error as exception): In addition to checking
syntax_error with error recovery, make sure it also behaves as
expected without.
The previous name was historical and inconsistent.
* src/muscle-tab.c (define_directive): Use the proper value passing
syntax, based on the muscle kind.
(muscle_percent_variable_update): Use the right value passing syntax.
Migrate from parser_class_name to api.parser.class.
* data/skeletons: Migrate from parser_class_name to api.parser.class.
* doc/bison.texi (%define Summary): Document both parser_class_name
and api.parser.class.
Promote the latter over the former.
This is very debatable. This function is not pure at all, so it could
stick to returning void: that's a common coding style to tell the
difference between "real" (pure) functions and side-effecting
subroutines. However, we already have this style elsewhere (e.g.,
yylex), and I feel the callers are somewhat nice to read this way.
* data/skeletons/glr.c (yygetLRActions): Return the action rather than
passing by pointer.
While at it, fix type of yytoken.
Adjust callers.

is thrown.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc: Log when an exception is caught.
* tests/c++.at (Syntax error as exception): Be sure to recover from
error before triggering another error.
This way, it is easier to make sure its implementation is available in
glr.cc too, which is not the case currently.

Adjust dependencies.

We used to create a short definition of yy::parser with all the
implementations of its member functions outside. But yy::parser is no
longer short and simple to read. Maintaining each function twice is
painful: a lot of redundancy but different indentation levels, output
which depends on whether we are in a header or not (see
d132c2d545), etc.
Let's simplify this and put the implementations into the class
definition itself.
Discussed in this monologue:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2018-12/msg00058.html.

Merge into...
(b4_basic_symbol_constructor_define, _b4_token_constructor_define)
(b4_token_constructor_define): these.
Commit 112ccb5ed7 moved the skeletons
from dist_pkgdata_DATA to dist_skeletons_DATA, hence broke the dependencies.
* Makefile.am (dependencies): New.
Use it where appropriate.
We used to define such auxiliary structures outside the class, mainly
as a matter of style to keep the definition of yy::parser short and
simple. However, now there's a lot more code generated inside the
class definition (e.g., all the token constructors), so the
readability no longer applies.
However, if we move stack (and slice) inside yy::parser, then it
should no longer be needed to change the namespace to have multiple
parsers: changing the class name should suffice.
One common argument against inner classes is that they code bloat. It
hardly applies here, since typically different parsers will have
different semantic value types, hence different actual stack types.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc: Invoke b4_stack_define inside yy::parser.

* data/c++.m4 (basic_symbol, by_type): Instead of provide either move
or copy constructor, always provide the copy one.
* tests/c++.at (C++ Variant-based Symbols Unit Tests): Check it.
Currently the following piece of code crashes (with parse.assert),

auto s = parser::make_INT (42);
auto s2 = std::move (s);
}
Reported by Wolfgang Thaller.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2018-12/msg00077.html
* data/c++.m4 (by_type): Provide a move-ctor.
(basic_symbol): Be sure not to read a moved-from value.
* tests/c++.at (C++ Variant-based Symbols Unit Tests): Check this case.
* tests/c++.at: Use AT_YYLEX_PROTOTYPE etc.
Which requires that we use the same argument names (lvalp, etc.).
* tests/local.at (AT_NAME_PREFIX): Fix regex.
Instead of introducing make_symbol (whose name, btw, somewhat
infringes on the user's "name space", if she defines a token named
"symbol"), let's make the construction of symbol_type safer, using
assertions.
For instance with:
%token ':' <std::string> ID <int> INT;
generate:
symbol_type (int token, const std::string&);
symbol_type (int token, const int&);
symbol_type (int token);
It does mean that now named token constructors (make_ID, make_INT,
etc.) go through a useless assert, but I think we can ignore this: I
assume any decent compiler will inline the symbol_type ctor inside the
make_TOKEN functions, which will show that the assert is trivially
verified, hence I expect no code will be emitted for it. And anyway,
that's an assert, NDEBUG controls it.
* data/c++.m4 (symbol_type): Turn into a subclass of
basic_symbol<by_type>.
Declare symbol constructors when variants are enabled.
* data/variant.hh (_b4_type_constructor_declare)
(_b4_type_constructor_define): Replace with...
(_b4_symbol_constructor_declare, _b4_symbol_constructor_def): these.

* doc/bison.texi (Complete Symbols): Document.
* tests/types.at: Check.
