[Bug translator/6701] New: improve error/warning messages with source context


Our error/warning messages have enough information to locate a
problem in source code (with file name, line, column numbers).

We should print the relevant line of script source with a handy
ascii art arrow underneath pointing at the problem site.

(By the way, we could probably use per-probe-point-component
token pointers, to fix "probe kernel.no_such_probe {}" messages
that sort of misdirect at the front.
