[clang-format] fix regression recognizing casts in Obj-C calls
ClosedPublic

Summary

r373922 added checks for a few tokens that, following an ) make it
unlikely that the ) is the closing paren of a cast expression. The
specific check for tok::l_square there introduced a regression for
casts of Obj-C calls, like:

(cast)[func arg]

From the tests added in r373922, I believe the tok::l_square case is added to
capture the case where a non-cast ) is directly followed by an
attribute specifier, like:

int f(int x) [[noreturn]];

I've specialized the code to look for such attribute specifier instead
of tok::l_square in general. Also, I added a regression test and moved
the test cases added in r373922 to an already existing place documenting
other instances of historically misidentified casts.

I think the issue r373922 was fixing is only related to the delete. Can this check be move further up where we explicitly check if the token is the delete keyword?

Sorry, I didn't notice this comment until now. I can investigate whether all the other cases for non-delete methods are already covered, it would be interesting. + @MyDeveloperDay, who might have better insights into this.

rC373922: [clang-format] [PR27004] omits leading space for noexcept when formatting… was to fix https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27004 which wasn't just related to delete it occurred in other cases. (operator++) and there could be other cases i guess.

I think the check for delete above the code that was added was checking for delete being on the left i.e. delete() and delete(x) is not a cast (sorry I wasn't the author for that part, so might not be correct)

However, I appreciate this patch (or any patch for that matter) that strengthens our tests in this way.
