make: omit redundant follow-up message "Malformed conditional"

If there is a parse error or an evaluation error during the conditional,
the conditional is already mentioned in the "while evaluating condition"
line, so there's no reason to repeat it once again.

Same for the "Bad condition" message from the '?:' modifier.

tests/make: force correct order of expected messages

make: reduce line length in error messages

The error messages for deeply nested parse errors were hard to decipher,
due to the large amount of text.  Split these messages into individual
lines, just as in the backtrace for .include files and .for loops.  This
unified backtrace makes the output more uniform.

make: in error message about conditionals, use single quotes

Single quotes are used less often in the conditionals themselves, which
leads to fewer confusions.

make: in error messages for anonymous variables, log the value

make: provide more context information for parse/evaluate errors

tests/make: replace 'variable expression' with 'expression'

Each expression is based on a variable, there's no need for the
verbosity.  The wording in make's diagnostics will be changed in a
follow-up commit.

tests/make: force line-based diagnostics to be listed in the tests

This way, contradictions between the intended output and the actual
output are closer together and have a better chance of being spotted.

tests/make: clean up comments, extend a few tests

tests/make: fix typo in variable name

tests/make: migrate cond1 test to other, more specific tests

The tests in cond1 were a mixture of "everything related to conditions",
and the test cases were heavily dependent on each other, which made them
hard to understand.  Move each test case to its corresponding
special-purpose test.

make(1): add more tests for tokens in conditionals

make(1): add more tests for parsing .if directives

The details of parsing are quite tricky and not documented in the manual
page.  Record the current behavior to be a little safer in future
refactorings.

make(1): describe the purpose of each newly added unit test dummy

make(1): add dummies for fine-grained tests, one per single feature

The test names have been derived from the current manual page.

All these tests are dummies right now, and the code from the existing
tests will be moved into the new tests step by step.

This is done to prevent modmisc, escape, varmod-edge and varmisc from
growing without any bounds, and to reduce the side-effects of one test
to the others.
