Flymake backends can report multiple times per check

Rewrote a significant part of the Flymake backend API.  Flymake now
ignores the return value of backend functions: a function can either
returns or errors.  If it doesn't error, a backend is no longer
constrained to call REPORT-FN exactly once.  It may do so any number
of times, cumulatively reporting diagnostics.  Flymake keeps track of
outdated REPORT-FN instances and disconsiders obsolete reports.
Backends should avoid reporting obsolete data by cancelling any
ongoing processing at every renewed call to the backend function.

Consolidated flymake.el internal data structures to require less
buffer-local variables.  Adjusted Flymake's mode-line indicator to the
new semantics.

Adapted and simplified the implementation of elisp and legacy
backends, fixing potential race conditions when calling backends in
rapid succession.

Fix three Flymake bugs when checking C header files

The first of these problems is longstanding: if an error-less B.h is
included from error-ridden A.h, flymake's legacy parser will panic
(and disable itself) since it sees a non-zero exit for a clean file.
To fix this, recommend returning 'true' in the documentation for the
check-syntax target.

Another problem was introduced by the parser rewrite.  For error
patterns spanning more than one line, point may be left in the middle
of a line and thus render other patterns useless.  Those patterns were
written for the old line-by-line parser.  To make them useful again,
move to the beginning of line in those situations.

The third problem was also longstanding and happened on newer GCC's:
The "In file included from" prefix confused
flymake-proc-get-real-file-name.  Fix this.

New Flymake API variable flymake-diagnostic-functions

Lay groundwork for multiple active backends in the same buffer.

Backends are lisp functions called when flymake-mode sees fit.  They
are responsible for examining the current buffer and telling
flymake.el, via return value, if they can syntax check it.
Backends should return quickly and inexpensively, but they are also
passed a REPORT-FN argument which they may or may not call
asynchronously after performing more expensive work.

REPORT-FN's calling convention stipulates that a backend calls it with
a list of diagnostics as argument, or, alternatively, with a symbol
denoting an exceptional situation, usually some panic resulting from a
misconfigured backend.  In keeping with legacy behaviour,
flymake.el's response to a panic is to disable the issuing backend.

The flymake--diag object representing a diagnostic now also keeps
information about its source backend.  Among other uses, this allows

Completely rewrite Flymake's subprocess output processing

Instead of parsing and matching regexps line-by-line, insert
subprocess output in a separate buffer and parse using
`search-forward-regexp'.  This eventually enables multi-line error
patterns and simplifies code all around.  Store per-check information
in the subprocess using `process-get' and `process-put'.  Treat error
messages, warnings, etc. more generically as "diagnostics".  Create
these objects as soon as possible, reusing existing `flymake-ler'
structure.  Fix some whitespace.

* lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (cl-lib): Require also when
loading.
(flymake--fix-line-numbers): Rename from
flymake-fix-line-numbers.  Simplify.
(flymake-report): Call flymake--fix-line-numbers.  Rearrange
plain diagnostics list into alist format expected by
flymake-highlight-err-lines.

* lisp/progmodes/flymake-proc.el (flymake-process-filter): Insert
process output and parse in dedicated output buffer.
(flymake-proc--diagnostics-for-pattern): New helper function.
