Replaces double quotes on problematic regex strings (mostly ones that have escape sequences that are easier to preserve in single quotes). Necessitates also changing single quotes to `.`, i.e match any.
For some (mostly ones that only have a single escaped character, or were using `\.` to match a literal fullstop) keep the double quotes and fix the regex instead.
This patch should support things like
`define foo(a, b = 3, c) a+b+c
`foo(1, ,2)
which will evaluate to 1+3+2. It also spots mistakes like
`foo(1)
(the 3rd argument doesn't have a default value, so a call site is
required to set it).
Most of the patch is a simple parser for the format in preproc.cc, but
I've also taken the opportunity to wrap up the "name -> definition"
map in a type, rather than use multiple std::map's.
Since this type needs to be visible to code that touches defines, I've
pulled it (and the frontend_verilog_preproc declaration) out into a
new file at frontends/verilog/preproc.h and included that where
necessary.
Finally, the patch adds a few tests in tests/various to check that we
are parsing everything correctly.
