Instead of manually adding a note pointing to the relevant template
parameter to every relevant error, which is very easy to miss, this
patch adds a new instantiation context note, so that this can work using
RAII magic.
This fixes a bunch of places where these notes were missing, and is more
future-proof.
Some diagnostics are reworked to make better use of this note:
- Errors about missing template arguments now refer to the parameter
which is missing an argument.
- Template Template parameter mismatches now refer to template
parameters as parameters instead of arguments.
It's likely this will add the note to some diagnostics where the
parameter is not super relevant, but this can be reworked with time and
the decrease in maintenance burden makes up for it.
This bypasses the templight dumper for the new context entry, as the
tests are very hard to update.
This depends on #125453, which is needed to avoid losing the context
note for errors occuring during template argument deduction.
This patch makes it so the correct instantiation context is printed for
diagnostics suppessed by template argument deduction.
The context is saved along with the suppressed diagnostic, and when the
declaration they were attached to becomes used, we print the correct
context, instead of whatever context was at this point.
Fixes#110558.
In this patch, we will emit a diagnostic note pointing to the class
declaration when a method definition does not match any declaration.
This approach, similar to what GCC does, makes the diagnostic more
user-friendly.

Fix bogus diagnostics that would get confused and think a "no viable
fuctions" case was an "undeclared identifiers" case, resulting in an
incorrect diagnostic preceding the correct one. Use overload resolution
to determine which function we should select when we can find call
candidates from a dependent base class. Make the diagnostics for a call
that could call a function from a dependent base class more specific,
and use a different diagnostic message for the case where the call
target is instead declared later in the same class. Plus some minor
diagnostic wording improvements.
template name is not visible to unqualified lookup.
In order to support this without a severe degradation in our ability to
diagnose typos in template names, this change significantly restructures
the way we handle template-id-shaped syntax for which lookup of the
template name finds nothing.
Instead of eagerly diagnosing an undeclared template name, we now form a
placeholder template-name representing a name that is known to not find
any templates. When the parser sees such a name, it attempts to
disambiguate whether we have a less-than comparison or a template-id.
Any diagnostics or typo-correction for the name are delayed until its
point of use.
The upshot should be a small improvement of our diagostic quality
overall: we now take more syntactic context into account when trying to
resolve an undeclared identifier on the left hand side of a '<'. In
fact, this works well enough that the backwards-compatible portion (for
an undeclared identifier rather than a lookup that finds functions but
no function templates) is enabled in all language modes.

We get into this bad state when someone defines a new member function
for a class but forgets to add the declaration to the class body.
Calling the new member function from a member function template of the
class will crash during instantiation.
