When the user generates an error via %warning, %error, or %fatal,
treat is as any other error message. The attempt at making them stand
out really looked ugly when the preprocessor adds additional tracing
information.

We always need to process %+ at least once, but we also always need to
reprocess smacros after pasting. The solution to this is to make sure
we always reprocess %+ after the first expansion pass.

Instead of removing the list file on error, keep the list file and
include the errors in the list file. This makes it actually possible
to debug things that involve deep macro recursion, where the line
number is pretty much meaningless.

outdbg is actually a good starting point to make a new backend, so we
really should endeavor to make it do things "right".

The OUT_REL*ADR types pass a pointer which points to an int64_t
which then should be truncated down to size. This matters on
bigendian platforms.
Add OUT_REL8ADR.

The documentation uses "Intel hex", with that capitalization (Intel
being a proper noun, hex being descriptive) so make the help message
match.

Revert to original %+ behavior. This is what we really wanted in the
first place, except this time we have fixed some bugs.

Revert to the earlier behavior of not expanding %+ until the final
phase of smacro expansion. However, the previous code has:
if (expanded && paste_tokens(&thead, true)) {
... which would inhibit paste_tokens() if expanded was false on the
first iteration. However, if expand_mmac_params is not expanding %+,
then we cannot bypass this expansion. Thus use:
pasted = paste_tokens(&thead, true);
if (expanded && pasted) {
... instead.
This seems to work with both Syslinux and x264 usage, and therefore
hopefully should be compatible with earlier versions of NASM.

Update user-visible changes so far. Since I consider the license
change alone to be big enough of a deal to justify a "real" version
number, make this version 2.07.

*To the best of my knowledge*, we now have authorization from everyone
who has significantly contributed to NASM in the past. As such,
change the license to the 2-clause BSD license.

- add assert so we don't try to write 2^64 bytes of zero
- explicitly track the Intel hex "LBA" (64K page) instead of playing
games with the last byte written. This way it is more explicit
what we're doing and why.

BR 677841 was fixed backwards, with a reverse condition. Correct the
direction of the fix, and add an assert for the overflow condition.
Note: the bug was non-manifest in previous build, so this is not a
security issue.

In the "NASM shell", it makes sense for NASM to be first in the PATH,
not last. That way if the user has more than one version of NASM
installed, and one of them is global, the "NASM shell" for any one
version will still pick up the proper version.

Change the "noreturn" macro to "no_return", to avoid problems with
system header files which use __attribute__((noreturn)) rather than
__attribute__((__noreturn__)) as is appropriate for system headers.

Consider that argv[0] may contain extensions like .exe as well as
pathname prefixes. Handle it by searching backwards for the string
"rdf2" and then extract the alphanumeric tail that follows.

We seem to use the term "extensions" to mean anything that is specific

Using saa_fpwrite() to dump a section to a file automatically does
saa_rewind(), but if we use saa_rnbytes() to do bit by bit then we
manually need to to saa_rewind() before we start.

Add support for directly generating Intel hex or Motorola S-records.
These formats are commonly used with ROM burners.

Allow the backend to specify that an output format is either text or
binary. For future uses, define this as a flag word so we can define
other flags in the future if it would make sense.
Currently, the ieee and dbg formats are text; all the others are
binary.

We explicitly want the compiler to pessimize the taken case of the

The more common acronym for Intel Hex seems to be "ith", but the
legacy utility was "rdf2ihx", so we allow both variants. However, the
Makefile rule was wrong.
