A subexpression in parentheses lost its string/int type flag and
instead used whatever type was left in the stack entry from
previous use. In practice we mostly got away with this because
most preprocessor expressions are integer, but it could have
resulted in a preprocessor expression incorrectly evaluating as
zero. If -Wextra was in use you got a warning:
Warning 202: Error: 'Can't mix strings and integers in expression'
Fixes#1384
If it's not a recognised directive the scanner now emits MODULO and then
rescans what follows, and if the parser then gives a syntax error we
report it as an unknown directive. This means that `a%b` is now allowed
in an expression, and that things like `%std::vector<std::string>` now
give an error rather than being quietly ignored.

Add test for original syntax when using a single fragment key containing
the list of dependent fragments. I couldn't find a test for this.
Spaces in the fragment list don't seem to work - document it.
The "command" encoder was mostly intended for use in `%rename` - most
uses can be achieved using the "regex" encoder, so we recommend using
that instead.
The "command" encoder suffers from a number of issues - as the
documentation for it admitted, "[it] is extremely slow compared to all
the other [encoders] as it involves spawning a separate process and
using it for many declarations is not recommended" and that it "should
generally be avoided because of performance considerations".
But it's also not portable. The design assumes that `/bin/sh` supports
`<<<` but that's a bash-specific feature so it doesn't work on platforms
where `/bin/sh` is not bash - it fails on Debian, Ubuntu and probably
some other Linux distros, plus most non-Linux platforms. Microsoft
Windows doesn't even have a /bin/sh as standard.
Finally, no escaping of the passed string is done, so it has potential
security issues (though at least with %rename the input is limited to
valid C/C++ symbol names).
Fixes#1806
This is necessary for regex-like renames (where you can't use the #define trick
as is done in many of the %keywordwarn directives). It's now unnecessary to print
the "renaming to '`x`'" code explicitly by the kw.swg files.
Remove redundant NULL checks before free()/delete
The ISO C and C++ standards guarantee that it's safe to call these
on a NULL pointer, so it's not necessary for the calling code to
also check.
