Description
Testcase:
#define FOO 2+3
// 2+(3*4) == 14, not (2+3)*4 == 20
int n = FOO*4;
Clang doesn't warn on this, but I think it should. In general, I think a good heuristic would be: if the location of an operator is within a macro expansion, and an operand of that operator is not entirely within that same macro expansion, then warn. In this case, the + operator within FOO has an operand that extends to the 4 token, so we should warn.
This seems like something we could quickly and easily check for with our existing source location representation.
