In particular, the positions within function declarations, including the
positions of call sites to other functions.
Note that this isn't well tested just yet, particularly not with other
features like -literals. We can extend the tests and code over time.
This gets us the core basics.
The issue will be closed once the feature is documented for users, in a
follow-up PR.
Updates #5.
First, rename line_obfuscator.go to position.go. We obfuscate filenames,
not just line numbers, and "obfuscator" is a bit redundant.
Second, use "/*line :x*/" comments rather than the "//line :x" form, as
the former allows us to insert them in any position without adding
unnecessary newlines. This will be important for changing the position
of call sites, which will be important for "garble reverse".
Third, do not rely on go/ast to remove and add comments. Since they are
free-floating, we can very easily end up with misplaced comments,
especially as the literal obfuscator heavily modifies the AST.
The new method prints and re-parses the file, to ensure all node
positions are consistent with a buffer, buf1. Then, we copy the contents
into a new buffer, buf2, while inserting the comments that we need.
The new method also modifies line numbers at the very end of obfuscating
a Go file, instead of at the very beginning. That's going to be more
robust long-term, as we will also obfuscate line numbers for any
additions or modifications to the AST.
Fourth, detachedDirectives is unnecessary, as we can accomplish the same
with two simple prefix matches.
Finally, this means we can stop using detachedComments entirely, as
printFile already inserts the comments we need.
For #5.
