Implement the first set of changes for PR3963 and rdar://6759604,
which tries to do better error recovery when it is "obvious" that an identifier is a mis-typed typename. In this case, we try to parse it as a typename instead of as the identifier in a declarator, which gives us several options for better error recovery and immediately makes diagnostics more useful. For example, we now produce: t.c:4:8: error: unknown type name 'foo_t' static foo_t a = 4; ^ instead of: t.c:4:14: error: invalid token after top level declarator static foo_t a = 4; ^ Also, since we now parse "a" correctly, we make a decl for it, preventing later uses of 'a' from emitting things like: t.c:12:20: error: use of undeclared identifier 'a' int bar() { return a + b; } ^ I'd really appreciate any scrutiny possible on this, it is a tricky area. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@68911 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
