At least GCC 7.3, with -O1 or -O2 (but not -O0 or -O3) generates
warnings with -Wnull-dereference when using yyformat: it fails to see
yyformat cannot be null.
Reported by Frank Heckenbach, https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?9620.
* configure.ac: Use -Wnull-dereference if supported.
* data/glr.c, data/lalr1.cc, data/yacc.c: Define yyformat in such
a way that GCC cannot not see that yyformat is defined.
Using `default: abort();` also addresses the issue, but forces
the inclusion of `stdlib.h`, which we avoid.
Sometimes `inline` would be used in *.cc files on symbols that are not
exported (useless but harmless), and sometimes on exported symbols
such as the constructor of syntax_error (harmful: linking fails).

* data/c++.m4 (b4_inline): New: expands to `inline` or nothing.
Use it where appropriate.
* data/lalr1.cc: Use it where appropriate.
* tests/c++.at (Syntax error as exception): Put the scanner in another
compilation unit to exercise the constructor of syntax_error.
* data/lalr1.cc, doc/bison.texi, etc/bench.pl.in, examples/variant.yy,
* tests/actions.at, tests/atlocal.in, tests/c++.at, tests/headers.at,
* tests/local.at, tests/types.at:
Don't use std::endl, it flushes uselessly, and is considered bad
style.
* README-hacking: Commit before bootstrapping.
* bootstrap.conf: gnulib_mk is no longer defined by bootstrap.
* bootstrap, gnulib, lib/.gitignore, m4/.gitignore: Update/regen.
With Clang 6.0:
CC src/bison-getargs.o
bison/src/getargs.c:67:12: error: parameter 'option' not found in the
function declaration [-Werror,-Wdocumentation]
* \param option option being decoded.
^~~~~~
bison/src/getargs.c:67:12: note: did you mean 'rpl_option'?
* src/getargs.c: Don't use `option` as a documentation argument.
