In Bison we refer to "shift/reduce" conflicts, not "shift-reduce" (in
Bison 3.6.3 186 occurrences vs 15). Enforce consistency on this.
Instead of "spending" a second line for each conflict to report the
lookaheads, put that on the same line as the type of conflict. Also,
prefer "token" to "symbol". Maybe we should even prefer "lookahead".
While at it, enable internationalization, with plurals where
appropriate.
As a consequence, instead of
Shift-Reduce Conflict:
6: 3 b: . %empty
6: 6 d: c . A
On Symbol: A
display
Shift/reduce conflict on token A:
6: 3 b: . %empty
6: 6 d: c . A

GCC's warn_unused_result is not silenced by a cast to void, so we have
to "use" scanf's result.

Flex generated code produces too many warnings, including things such
as, with ICC:
examples/c/lexcalc/scan.c(1088): error #1682: implicit conversion
of a 64-bit integral type to a smaller integral type (potential portability problem)
2259 YY_INPUT( (&YY_CURRENT_BUFFER_LVALUE->yy_ch_buf[number_to_move]),
2260 ^

I am tired of trying to fix Flex's output. The project does not seem
maintained. We ought to avoid it. So, for the time being, don't try
to enable warnings with Flex.
* examples/c/bistromathic/parse.y, examples/c/reccalc/scan.l: Fix
warnings.
* doc/bison.texi: Discard scanf's return value to defeat
-Werror=unused-result.
Teaches bison about a new command line option, --file-prefix-map OLD=NEW
(based on the -ffile-prefix-map option from GCC) which causes it to
replace and file path of OLD in the text of the output file with NEW,
mainly for header guards and comments. The primary use of this is to
make builds reproducible with different input paths, and in particular
the debugging information produced when the source code is compiled. For
example, a distro may know that the bison source code will be located at
"/usr/src/bison" and thus can generate bison files that are reproducible
with the following command:
bison --output=/build/bison/parse.c -d --file-prefix-map=/build/bison/=/usr/src/bison/ parse.y
Importantly, this will change the header guards and #line directives
from:
#ifndef YY_BUILD_BISON_PARSE_H
#line 100 "/build/bison/parse.h"
to
#ifndef YY_USR_SRC_BISON_PARSE_H
#line 100 "/usr/src/bison/parse.h"
which is reproducible.

Commit a4ede8f85b ("package: make bison
a relocatable package") made Bison relocatable, but in fact it still
contains one absolute reference: the M4 variable, which points to the
M4 program. Let's fix that by using relocate(), see if an M4 binary is
available at the relocated location, and otherwise fallback to the
original M4 location.

With input such as
%token<fl> yVL_CLOCK "/*verilator sc_clock*/"
we generate
yVL_CLOCK = 610, /* "/*verilator sc_clock*/" */
which is invalid since the comment will actually be closed on the
first "*/". Let's turn "*/" into "*\/" to avoid this. But GCC will
also warn about "/*" inside a comment, so let's "escape" it too.

symbol_type::token () was removed: it returned the token kind of a
symbol. To do that, one needs to convert from the symbol kind to the
token kind, which requires a table.
This broke some users' unit tests for scanners, see
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2020-01/msg00001.htmlhttps://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2020-03/msg00020.htmlhttps://lists.gnu.org/r/help-bison/2020-04/msg00005.html
Instead of making this possible again, let's check the symbol's kind
instead. So give proper access to a symbol's kind.
That feature existed, undocumented, as 'type_get()'. Let's rename
this as 'kind()'.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4, data/skeletons/glr.cc,
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc (type_get): Rename as...
(kind): This.
(type_get): Install a backward compatibility alias.
* doc/bison.texi (Complete Symbols): Document symbol_type and
symbol_type::kind.
* NEWS (Deep overhaul of the symbol and token kinds): New.
* doc/bison.texi: Promote YYEOF over "0" in scanners.
(Token Decl): No longer show YYEOF here, it now works by default.
(Token I18n): More details about YYEOF here.
(Calc++): Just use YYEOF.
The user should think of yypcontext fields as accessible only via
yypcontext_* functions. So let's rename yyexpected_tokens to reflect
that.
Let's _not_ rename yyreport_syntax_error, as the user may define this
function, and is not allowed to access directly the fields of
yypcontext_t: she *must* use the "accessors". This is comparable to
the case of C++/Java where the user defines
parser::report_syntax_error, not parser::context::report_syntax_error.
* data/skeletons/glr.c, data/skeletons/yacc.c (yyexpected_tokens):
Rename as...
(yypcontext_expected_tokens): this.
Adjust dependencies.
* doc/bison.texi: Replace occurrences of "token type" with "token
kind".
Stop referring to the "macro definitions" of the token kinds, just
name them "definitions".
