Summary:
This patch implements parsing of [[clang::suppress(rule, ...)]]
and [[gsl::suppress(rule, ...)]] attributes.
C++ Core Guidelines depend heavily on tool support for
rule enforcement. They also propose a way to suppress
warnings [1] which is by annotating any ancestor in AST
with the C++11 attribute [[gsl::suppress(rule1,...)]].
To have a mechanism to suppress non-C++ Core
Guidelines specific, an additional spelling of [[clang::suppress]]
is defined.
For example, to suppress the warning cppcoreguidelines-slicing,
one could do
```
[[clang::suppress("cppcoreguidelines-slicing")]]
void f() { ... code that does slicing ... }
```
or
```
void g() {
Derived b;
[[clang::suppress("cppcoreguidelines-slicing")]]
Base a{b};
[[clang::suppress("cppcoreguidelines-slicing")]] {
doSomething();
Base a2{b};
}
}
```
This parsing can then be used by clang-tidy, which includes multiple
C++ Core Guidelines rules, to suppress warnings (see
https://reviews.llvm.org/D24888).
For the exact naming of the rule in the attribute, there
are different possibilities, which will be defined in the
corresponding clang-tidy patch.
Currently, clang-tidy supports suppressing of warnings through "//
NOLINT" comments. There are some advantages that the attribute has:
- Suppressing specific warnings instead of all warnings
- Suppressing warnings in a block (namespace, function, compound
statement)
- Code formatting may split a statement into multiple lines,
thus a "// NOLINT" comment may be on the wrong line
I'm looking forward to your comments!

and the nature of a declaration
This commit adds an external_source_symbol attribute to Clang. This attribute
specifies that a declaration originates from an external source and describes
the nature of that source. This attribute will be used to improve IDE features
like 'jump-to-definition' for mixed-language projects or project that use
auto-generated code.

Things that are OK:
extern int var1 __attribute((alias("v1")));
static int var2 __attribute((alias("v2")));
Things that are not OK:
int var3 __attribute((alias("v3")));
extern int var4 __attribute((alias("v4"))) = 4;
We choose to accpet:
struct S { static int var5 __attribute((alias("v5"))); };
This code causes assertion failues in GCC 4.8 and ICC 13.0.1, we have
no reason to reject it.
This partially fixes PR22217.

Also move the attribute-specific dumping to after dumping this and
the Implicit flag.

Additionally, remove the optional nature of the spelling list index when creating attributes. This is supported by table generating a Spelling enumeration when the spellings for an attribute are distinct enough to warrant it.

the GNU documentation: the attribute only appertains to the label if it is
followed by a semicolon. Based on a patch by Aaron Ballman!

Indents were given the color blue when outputting with color.
AST dumping now looks like this:
Node
|-Node
| `-Node
`-Node
`-Node
Compared to the previous:
(Node
(Node
(Node))
(Node
(Node)))
