This feature was implemented with a per-diagnostic table of override DiagnosticBehaviors. That table was able to represent not only that a diagnostic should be ignored, but also many other states that were difficult to integrate with a feature I’m trying to introduce. Simplify the implementation so it can only represent ignoring a diagnostic, which has a much cleaner interaction with the new feature.
Teach the diagnostic engine about a new wrapper type `FullyQualified<T>`. The intent is to clarify which parameters will be printed with additional qualification in diagnostic text. For now, this is only useful for types, so there's a bit of SFINAE guarding against misuse of the abstraction.

ActorIsolation is rendered as a descriptive phrase before an entity,
e.g, "actor-independent" or "global actor 'UIActor'-isolated" when
used in diagnostics.
Create a new diagnostics serialization library, splitting out of
swiftAST to reduce the overheads for building the tooling for
cross-compiling the toolchain. This should reduce the build time for
swift-serialize-diagnostics to enable cross-compilation.
Introduce localization support for diagnostics via file-per-language store in `YAML` format.
Add `LocalizationFormat` interface and its implementation `YAMLLocalizationProducer`.
Augment `DiagnosticEngine` to support localization when applicable.
* [Diagnostics] Turn educational notes on-by-default
* [Diagnostics] Only include educational notes in printed output if -print-educational-notes is passed
* Make -print-educational-notes a driver option
* [Diagnostics] Issue a printed remark if educational notes are available, but disabled
* [docs] Update educational notes documentation and add a contributing guide
* [Diagnostics] Cleanup PrintingDiagnosticConsumer handling of edu notes
* Revert "[Diagnostics] Issue a printed remark if educational notes are available, but disabled"
For now, don't notify users if edu notes are available but disabled. This decision can be reevaluated later.
* [Diagnostics] Experimental diagnostic printing updates
This new style directly annotates small snippets of code with
error messages, highlights and fix-its. It also uses color more
effectively to highlight important segments.
* [Diagnostics] Stage educational notes and experimental formatting behind separate frontend flags
educational notes -> -enable-educational-notes
formatting -> -enable-experimental-diagnostic-formatting
* [Diagnostics] Refactor expensive line lookups in diag formatting
* [Diagnostics] Refactor some PrintingDiagnosticConsumer code into a flush method
* [Diag-Experimental-Formatting] Custom formatting for Xcode editor placeholders
* [Diag-Experimental-Formatting] Better and more consistent textual description of fix its
* [Diags-Experimental-Formatting] Handle lines with tab characters correctly when rendering highlights and messages
Tabs are converted to 2 spaces for display purposes.
* [Diag-Experimental-Formatting] Refactor byte-to-column mapping for efficiency
* [Diag-Experimental-Formatting] Fix line number indent calculation
* [Diag-Experimental-Formatting] Include indicators of insertions and deletions in the highlight line
Inserts are underlined by green '+' chars, deletions by red '-' chars.
* [Diag-Experimental-Formatting] Change color of indicator arrow for non-ASCII anchored messages
* [Diag-experimental-formatting] Make tests less sensitive to line numbering
* [Diag-Experimental-Formatting] Update tests to allow windows path separators
* [Diag-Experimental-Formatting] Bug fixes for the integrated REPL
This type wraps a DeclName, indicating that it is a reference to a declaration that exists somewhere else and it requires slightly “fuzzy” comparison (i.e. if it’s not compound, only the base names should be compared). DeclName::matchesRef() and MemberLookupTable::find() both now take a DeclNameRef instead of a DeclName.
This commit temporarily allows implicit conversion from DeclName; I’ll flip the switch on that in a later commit.
Educational notes are small pieces of documentation which explain a concept
relevant to some diagnostic message. If -enable-descriptive-diagnostics is
passed, they will be printed after a diagnostic message if available.
Educational notes can be found at /usr/share/doc/diagnostics in a
toolchain, and are associated with specific compiler diagnostics in
EducationalNotes.def.
This flag will feature-gate work on producing more descriptive diagnostic messages.
It will remain a hidden frontend option until these improvements are ready to ship.
Add a new type of diagnostic transaction, CompoundDiagnosticTransaction.
The first diagnostic emitted inside the transaction will become the parent of the subsequent notes.
DiagnosticConsumers may opt in to consuming these child notes alongside the parent
diagnostic, or they can continue to consider them seperately.
Moved PrintingDiagnosticConsumer and a couple of diagnostics to the new
system as a proof of concept.
These are defined with macros like errors/warnings/notes, and
make use of format strings and diagnostic arguments. The intent
is to leverage diagnostic arguments in the future to disambiguate
ambiguously spelled types.
Ported a few miscellaneous fix-its to the new system
This flag adds diagnostic names to the end of their messages, e.g. 'error: cannot convert value of type '[Any]' to specified type '[Int]' [cannot_convert_initializer_value]'. It's intended to be used for debugging purposes when working on the compiler.
If diagnostics are produced as part of a transaction, let's copy
strings associated with arguments into a separate long(er) term
storage which is going to be cleaned up when diagnostic is actually
emit to the consumers.
Use the "nearest source location" information on a request to map it
to a particular source buffer, then use that information in the
GraphViz dependency graphs so we can see cross-file dependencies more
clearly.
Currently only works for types that are /just/ a 'some' type, not in a
nested position. Also won't show them for opaque types with different
requirements, to avoid noise when it's not strictly necessary. This
does mean that 'some P' vs. 'some P & Q' won't get the origin part.
