attribs: Improve diagnostics
When looking at the attribs code, I've noticed weird diagnostics like int a __attribute__((section ("foo", "bar"))); a.c:1:1: error: wrong number of arguments specified for ‘section’ attribute 1 | int a __attribute__((section ("foo", "bar"))); | ^~~ a.c:1:1: note: expected between 1 and 1, found 2 As roughly 50% of attributes that accept any arguments have spec->min_length == spec->max_length, I think it is worth it to have separate wording for such common case and just write simpler a.c:1:1: note: expected 1, found 2 2022-09-23 Jakub Jelinek <jakub@redhat.com> * attribs.cc (decl_attributes): Improve diagnostics, instead of saying expected between 1 and 1, found 2 just say expected 1, found 2.
