- scoped traversals can now raise errors which contain the path of the
  current scope and an approximate source location based on preceding
  trace comments, if available
- initially, this new error messaging has only been added for the
  illegal size cast checks in the TypeOf and Cast conversions
- error suite tests can provide a verbose mode expected source location

- error suite runs in both regular and verbose mode
- add helper for extracting "flags" from test files
- common assertMatch, assertNotMatch helpers
- remove unused assertExists helper
- fix un-escaped wildcard in assert_deferred_nonzero.sv

Specifically, support has been added for non-ANSI style port
declarations where the port declaration is separate from the
corresponding net or variable declaration.

- all inputs are now decoded as UTF-8, regardless of the platform
- decoding failures are now tolerated via transliteration given errant
  characters are generally expected to appear in comments

This works around a compilation performance regression in GHC 9.0.1:
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/20261. This also speeds up
compilation on other versions.

This adds support for typed valued parameters declared in parameter port
lists without explicitly providing a leading `parameter` or `localparam`
marker.
