Summary: Mx: @include does not write any "#line" directives

Initial Comment:
With "@include", Mx does not write any "#line# directives into the (C-) output file.

Consequently, tools like debuggers (e.g., gdb) or Coverity do point to incorrect source code lines for all .mx files that use @include (e.g., most of the C code of the M5 back-end).

A simple example:
========
$ cat x.mx
@f x
@c
x3
x4
@include y.mx
x6
x7
@include z.mx
x9
x10
@:zf@
x12
========
$ cat y.mx
y1
y2
========
$ cat z.mx
@= zf
z2
z3
@c
========
$ Mx -c x.mx
x.mx: ./x.c - not modified
========
The incorrect output
--------
$ cat x.c

#line 3 "x.mx"
x3
x4
y1
y2
x6
x7


#line 10 "x.mx"
x9
x10

#line 10 "x.mx"
z2
z3


#line 12 "x.mx"

x12

========
Diff between incorrect (left) and correct/expected (right) output.
--------
$ diff -y -W30 x.c x.c.expected

#line 3 "x.mx #line 3 "x.mx
x3 x3
x4 x4
              > #line 1 "y.mx
y1 y1
y2 y2
              > #line 6 "x.mx
x6 x6
x7 x7


#line 10 "x.m | #line 9 "x.mx
x9 x9
x10 x10

#line 10 "x.m | #line 2 "z.mx
z2 z2
z3 z3


#line 12 "x.m | #line 11 "x.m

x12 x12

========

I tried to fix this, but turned out not to be familiar enough with the Mx code to do it "quickly".
Hence, this report to document the status until I (or someone else) manages to fix this.
