description of these new concepts.

Explain creation of foreign diagnostics.
(Foreign and list-only diagnostics): New subsection.
(Listing diagnostics): New subsection.
* lisp/progmodes/flymake.el
(Version): Bump to 1.2.1
(project): Require project.
(flymake--diag): Add new slots 'orig-beg' and 'orig-end'. Rename
'buffer' slot to 'locus'.

LOCUS arg.

* lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (flymake-mode-line-indicator-format):
New variable (bug#33740).
(flymake--mode-line-format): Use it.
The typical use of this function (which is parsing compiler diagnostic
messages), lends itself too easily to one the problems in bug#29193.
Make it a friendlier API.
* doc/misc/flymake.texi (Flymake utility functions): Document that
flymake-diag-region saves match data.
* lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (flymake-diag-region): Document that
this saves match data.
Eglot, a third-party package which uses Flymake, has its own
diagnostic types such as 'eglot-error', 'eglot-warning', etc... While
not being too long, they will not fit in the type column of the "list
all diagnostics" buffer. This commit allows diagnostic types to have
user-defined names and also assigns names to the default categories.
* doc/misc/flymake.texi (Flymake error types): Describe
flymake-type-name prop.
* lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (flymake--diagnostics-buffer-entries):
Use type names.
(flymake-error, flymake-warning, flymake-note): Give these
diagnostic categories default type names.
Problem was reintroduced by commit titled:
"Mention use of C-h . (display-local-help) in Flymake manual"
* doc/misc/flymake.texi: Don't @include a relative path.
That varaiable was an association between symbols and properties,
effecively duplicating symbol's property lists. It is simpler to just
put properties on symbols. Backward compatibility to the old variable
has been kept.

flymake-diagnostic-types-alist.
(Flymake error types): Rework section.

flymake-diagnostic-types-alist.

(flymake-goto-prev-error): Don't mention
flymake-diagnostic-types-alist in docstring.
(flymake-diagnostic-types-alist): Make obsolete.
(:error, :warning, :note): Put flymake-category in these symbols.
(flymake-error, flymake-warning, flymake-note): Put
`flymake-bitmap', not `bitmap' in these symbols.
(flymake--lookup-type-property, flymake--highlight-line): Rewrite.
Honor flymake-diagnostic-types-alist for backward
compatibility.
* lisp/progmodes/python.el (python-flymake-msg-alist): Don't
mention flymake-diagnostic-types-alist.

Flymake backends that rely on sentinels running asynchronously and
checking buffer-local variables that hold running processes should
check for obsoleteness in the correct buffers, otherwise a (harmless)
warning might be triggered.
* doc/misc/flymake.texi (An annotated example backend):
Check buffer-local proc in the current buffer.
* lisp/progmodes/elisp-mode.el (elisp-flymake-byte-compile):
Check buffer-local proc in the current buffer.
Fix some confusing parts of Flymake user documentation, like a
repeated listing of situations leading to a syntax check.
Documentation is now divided into three chapters only: "Using
Flymake", "Extending Flymake", and a chapter for the legacy backend.
Obsolete mention of "errors" and "lines" is replaced by
"diagnostics/problems" and "regions" where appropriate.
* doc/misc/flymake.texi (Overview of Flymake): Delete chapter.
(Using Flymake): Merge with chapter "Overview of Flymake".
(Installing Flymake): Delete chapter.
