[Bug fortran/34536] New: Make support of 2.0**-3*5 tighter: Print warning by default

[burnus at gcc dot gnu dot org]

The problem with
  2.0**-3*5
is whether it should be interpreted as "2.0**(-3) * 5" or as "2.0**(-3*5)".
gfortran does the former, ifort the latter.

g95, openf95, sunf95 and (of cause) NAG f95 reject it always.
ifort: Accepts it, unless -stand f* is used.
gfortran: Warning for -pedantic, Error for -std=f*. Nothing for -Wall.

I would suggest to print at least a warning by default; or to shift it to
legacy, but having it without diagnostics by default can lead to wrong results.
