cmd/compile: rationalize (lex)?lineno handling
Previously, many error messages inconsistantly used either lexlineno
and lineno. In general this works out okay because they're almost
always the same. The only exceptional case is after lexing a
multi-line raw string literal, where lineno will be the line number of
the opening quote and lexlineno is the line number of the closing
quote.
This CL makes the compiler's error message more consistent:
- Lexer error messages related to invalid byte sequences (i.e., NUL
bytes, bad UTF-8 sequences, and non-initial BOMs) are emitted at
lexlineno (i.e., the source line that contains the invalid byte
sequence).
- All other error messages (notably the parser's "syntax errors") now
use lineno. The minor change from this is that bogus input like:
package `
bogus`
will emit "syntax error: unexpected string literal, expecting name"
error at line 1, instead of line 2.
- Instead of maintaining prevlineno all the time, just record it
when/where actually needed and not already available elsewhere (which
turns out to be just one function).
- Lastly, we remove the legacy "syntax error near ..." fallback in
Yerror, now that the parser always emits more detailed syntax error
messages.

Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.
For documentation about how to install and use Go, visit https://golang.org/ or load doc/install-source.html in your web browser.
Our canonical Git repository is located at https://go.googlesource.com/go. There is a mirror of the repository at https://github.com/golang/go.
Go is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!

Unless otherwise noted, the Go source files are distributed under the BSD-style license found in the LICENSE file.
If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.
For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:
export GOROOT=$HOME/go export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
