tests/lint: remove .exp files, as they have become redundant

Now that each lint1 test lists all generated diagnostics as 'expect'
comments, the information from the .exp files is no longer needed.  The
only information that gets lost is the order of the diagnostics, which
is mostly relevant for paired messages like 'inconsistent definition' +
'previous definition was here'.

tests/lint: make a few tests self-contained, add some others

lint: add quotes around placeholder in message 214

function '%s' expects to return value

lint: quote placeholders in messages for unused variables

lint: prefix error messages with 'error:'

This makes it easier to find these errors in the build logs.

lint: add tests for messages 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99

lint: add a test for each message produced by lint1

Having a test for each message ensures that upcoming refactorings don't
break the basic functionality.  Adding the tests will also discover
previously unknown bugs in lint.

The tests ensure that every lint message can actually be triggered, and
they demonstrate how to do so.  Having a separate file for each test
leaves enough space for documenting historical anecdotes, rationale or
edge cases, keeping them away from the source code.

The interesting details of this commit are in Makefile and
t_integration.sh.  All other files are just auto-generated.

When running the tests as part of ATF, they are packed together as a
single test case.  Conceptually, it would have been better to have each
test as a separate test case, but ATF quickly becomes very slow as soon
as a test program defines too many test cases, and 50 is already too
many.  The time complexity is O(n^2), not O(n) as one would expect.
It's the same problem as in tests/usr.bin/make, which has over 300 test
cases as well.
