Introduce serialization and deserialization of diagnostic information
so that CIndex can report diagnostics through the normal mechanisms even when executing Clang in a separate process. This applies both when performing code completion and when using ASTs as an intermediary for clang_createTranslationUnitFromSourceFile(). The serialized format is not perfect at the moment, because it does not encapsulate macro-instantiation information. Instead, it maps all source locations back to the instantiation location. However, it does maintain source-range and fix-it information. To get perfect fidelity from the serialized format would require serializing a large chunk of the source manager; at present, it isn't clear if this code will live long enough for that to matter. llvm-svn: 94740
