ringabout cfa769fefc fixes #22950; Poor error message on cast effect violation (#25839)
fixes #22950

This pull request improves the tracking and reporting of effect
annotations (such as `raises`, `tags`, and `forbids`) in pragma blocks,
particularly when using the `cast` pragma. It ensures that the source of
these effect annotations is correctly preserved and referenced, which
improves error reporting and effect analysis. Additionally, a new test
was added to check for violations when using `cast` with effect
annotations.

Effect annotation source tracking and propagation:

* Added new fields (`excSource`, `tagsSource`, `forbidsSource`) to the
`PragmaBlockContext` type to store the original source node for each
effect annotation.
* Updated `castBlock` to set these new source fields when processing
`raises`, `tags`, and `forbids` pragmas, ensuring the source node is
preserved for later error reporting.
* Modified `unapplyBlockContext` to use the stored source node (if
available) when calling `addRaiseEffect`, `addTag`, and `addNotTag`,
improving the accuracy of effect tracking and diagnostics.

Pragma handling improvements:

* Changed the call to `castBlock` in the main pragma processing loop to
pass the entire pragma node, enabling access to the original source for
effect annotations.

Testing:

* Added a new test (`tests/effects/tcast_effect_violation.nim`) to
verify that using `cast(raises: ValueError)` inside a procedure with
`.raises: [].` correctly triggers an error message about an unlisted
exception.
