Stop using that bitfield for everything, including what can be determined otherwise
It also makes it easier to have a sane state, since some bits were (supposedly)
mutually exclusive
The old error stack was fairly obtuse and hard to use for debugging.
This improves it notably by ensuring all line numbers are relative
to the file, and not, say, the macro definition.
This is a breaking change if you were parsing the old stack, but
the change should be painless, and the new stack only brings more info.
The syntax is unchanged for files, macros see their name prefixed
with the file they're defined in and a pair of colors, REPT blocks
simply append a '::REPT~n' to the context they're in, where 'n' is
the number of iterations the REPT has done.
This is especially helpful in macro-heavy code such as rgbds-structs.
REPT blocks nested in macros (and possibly other cases) leaked
memory on every call. Unlike most other memory leaks, which would
be freed at the end of program execution if they were done properly,
those piled up the more compilation went on.
I believe memory usage could have started being fairly high on
large projects following the "one master file INCLUDEs all the rest"
so this may have actually been worth it.
sym_SetMacroArgID used a `sprintf` that could write no \0.
In practice this was benign because %u cannot print 256 chars,
but better future-proof this.
This adds two new directives: newcharmap and setcharmap.
newcharmap creates a new charmap and switches to it.
setcharmap switches to an existing charmap.
Currently, all symbols are assigned a filename and line when they're
first encountered and added to the internal hash table. This is often
not expected and leads to erroneous error messages.
Added define 'unused_' for '__attribute__((unused))'. The oldest version
of GCC with online docs (GCC 2.95.3, released in March 16, 2001 [1])
already has support for this attribute, so it doesn't make sense to
check the version.
Renamed 'noreturn' to 'noreturn_' for consistency.

-Wsign-compare has been disabled because flex generates a comparison
that triggers a warning and cannot be fixed in the code.

Use snprintf instead of other unsafe functions. That way it is possible
to limit the size of the buffer and to ensure that it never overflows.

Now, when POPS is executed, it restores the symbol scope of the
corresponding PUSHS. That way, the local symbols previously available
can be used again after the POPS.
This is useful in cases like this one:
```
SECTION "Section 1", ROMX
BigFunction:
...
.loop:
...
PUSHS
SECTION "Section 2", ROMX
DataForBigFunction:
DB 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
POPS
ld a,BANK(DataForBigFunction)
ld hl,DataForBigFunction
...
jr .loop
```

Not all occurrences have been replaced, in some cases they have been
left as they were before (like in rgbgfx and when they are in the
interface of a C standard library function).

It was removed in commit 6198cc185c, but
the documentation wasn't updated back then.
It makes more sense to reintroduce it now than to remove it from the
docs.

print the location of the first definition in the error message.

Local symbols can now be referenced outside the scope of their parent, by using the syntax “Parent.Chlid”.
- Local symbol names are now stored internally as “Parent.Child”.
- The symbol’s scope field no longer forms a linked list of the prior local symbols; it will now always contain the parent.
- Add the ability use EXPORT and GLOBAL with local symbols.
- Reduce duplication between findsymbol() and findpsymbol(), as well as between sym_AddLocalReloc() and sym_AddReloc().
Added `__TIMESTAMP_ISO_8601_LOCAL__` and `__TIMESTAMP_ISO_8601_UTC__`,
with the correct ISO 8601 representation of time and date from years to
seconds (including local timezone in the local time string).
Also, if the current time cannot be obtained from the OS, it will output
a warning and the time strings will be filled with '?' instead of
numbers and characters.

If they don't have quotes when passed to sym_AddString() they can't be
used at all by the assembler. I suppose nobody actually used them, they
seem to have been broken forever.
Added a comment to the function to say how to use it correctly for
strings.

IMPORT is simply useless, any symbol that isn't found in the current
file is automatically flagged as imported symbol.
