* New/better macro pragmas, make some experimental
fix#15920, close#18212, close#14781, close#6696,
close https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/220
Variable macro pragmas have been changed to
only take a unary section node.
They can now also be applied in sections with multiple variables,
as well as `const` sections. They also accept arguments.
Templates now support macro pragmas, mirroring other routine types.
Type and variable macro pragmas have been made experimental.
Symbols without parentheses instatiating nullary macros or templates
has also been documented in the experimental manual.
A check for a redefinition error based on the left hand side of variable
definitions when using variable macro pragmas was disabled.
This nerfs `byaddr` specifically, however this has been documented as
a consequence of the experimental features `byaddr` uses.
Given how simple these changes are I'm worried if I'm missing something.

`semOverloadedCall` may return a node with more elements than the
original nkCall node had (implicit and/or explicit generics).

Generate error messages using `error` instead of `assert`.
Fixes#10574
