[FileCheck] Move -dump-input diagnostic to first line

Without this patch, `-dump-input` prints a diagnostic at the end of
its marker range.  For example:

```
         1: Start.
check:1     ^~~~~~
         2: Bad.
next:2      X~~~
         3: Many lines
next:2      ~~~~~~~~~~
         4: of input.
next:2      ~~~~~~~~~
         5: End.
next:2      ~~~~ error: no match found
```

This patch moves it to the beginning like this:

```
         1: Start.
check:1     ^~~~~~
         2: Bad.
next:2      X~~~ error: no match found
         3: Many lines
next:2      ~~~~~~~~~~
         4: of input.
next:2      ~~~~~~~~~
         5: End.
next:2      ~~~~
```

The former somehow looks nicer because the diagnostic doesn't appear
to be somewhere within the marker range.  However, the latter is more
practical, especially when the marker range includes the remainder of
a very long dump.  First, in the case of an error, this patch enables
me to search the dump for `error:` and usually immediately land where
the detected error began.  Second, when trying to follow FileCheck's
logic, it's best to read top down, so this patch enables me to see
each diagnostic as soon as I encounter its marker.
