<h4 id="macroexpansion">Switched terminology from "instantiation" to "expansion"
for macros</h4>
A great deal of comments and code changes fell out of this, but also every API
relating to macros with the word "instantiation" (or some variant thereof) was
renamed. An incomplete list of the most note-worthy ones is here:
<ul>
<li><code>MacroInstantiation</code> became <code>MacroExpansion</code></li>
<li><code>SourceManager::getInstantiationLoc</code> became
<code>SourceManager::getExpansionLoc</code></li>
<li><code>SourceManager::getInstantiationRange</code> became
<code>SourceManager::getExpansionRange</code></li>
<li><code>SourceManager::getImmediateInstantiationRange</code> became
<code>SourceManager::getImmediateExpansionRange</code></li>
<li><code>SourceManager::getDecomposedInstantiationLoc</code> became
<code>SourceManager::getDecomposedExpansionLoc</code></li>
<li><code>SourceManager::getInstantiationColumnNumber</code> became
<code>SourceManager::getExpansionColumnNumber</code></li>
<li><code>SourceManager::getInstantiationLineNumber</code> became
<code>SourceManager::getExpansionLineNumber</code></li>
<!-- TODO: Make this more complete! -->
</ul>
<h4 id="diagnosticrename">Diagnostic class names were shuffled</h4>
<ul>
<li><code>Diagnostic</code> became <code>DiagnosticEngine</code></li>
