This patch implements the -Wvexing-parse warning to warn about the
sneaky most vexing parse rule in C++: the cases when a declaration
looks like a variable definition, but the C++ language requires it
to be interpreted as a function declaration.  This warning is on by
default (like clang++).  From the docs:

   void f(double a) {
     int i();        // extern int i (void);
     int n(int(a));  // extern int n (int);
   }

   Another example:

   struct S { S(int); };
   void f(double a) {
     S x(int(a));   // extern struct S x (int);
     S y(int());    // extern struct S y (int (*) (void));
     S z();         // extern struct S z (void);
   }

You can find more on this in [dcl.ambig.res].

I spent a fair amount of time on fix-it hints so that GCC can recommend
various ways to resolve such an ambiguity.  Sometimes that's tricky.
E.g., suggesting default-initialization when the class doesn't have
a default constructor would not be optimal.  Suggesting {}-init is also
not trivial because it can use an initializer-list constructor if no
default constructor is available (which ()-init wouldn't do).  And of
course, pre-C++11, we shouldn't be recommending {}-init at all.

What do you think of, instead of passing the type down into the declarator parse, adding the paren locations to cp_declarator::function and giving the diagnostic from cp_parser_init_declarator instead?

I also uncovered a bug in cp_parser_declarator, where we were setting
*parenthesized_p to true despite the comment saying the exact opposite.

Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, ok for trunk?

+Warn about the most vexing parse syntactic ambiguity.  This warns about
+the cases when a declaration looks like a variable definition, but the
+C++ language requires it to be interpreted as a function declaration.
+For instance:
+
+@smallexample
+void f(double a) @{
+  int i();        // extern int i (void);
+  int n(int(a));  // extern int n (int);
+@}
+@end smallexample
+
+Another example:
+
+@smallexample
+struct S @{ S(int); @};
+void f(double a) @{
+  S x(int(a));   // extern struct S x (int);
+  S y(int());    // extern struct S y (int (*) (void));
+  S z();         // extern struct S z (void);
+@}
+@end smallexample
+
+The warning will suggest options how to deal with such an ambiguity; e.g.,
+it can suggest removing the parentheses or using braces instead.
+
+This warning is enabled by default.
