[Bug fortran/30929] -pedantic-error produced only warnings and no errors

I think gfortran handles the warnings quite different, not that I know much
about the details of the C frontend.

primary.c:  if (x_hex && pedantic
primary.c-      && (gfc_notify_std (GFC_STD_GNU, "Extension: Hexadecimal "

This gives only an error with pedantic set (and -std=f95 or -std=f2003).

Otherwise, -pedantic is quite interwoven with the rest: options.c, e.g.:

  if (pedantic)
    {
      gfc_option.warn_ampersand = 1;
      gfc_option.warn_tabs = 0;
    }

No idea how to untangle -pedantic from -Wtabs or -Wampersand if
-pedantic-errors has been given, but -Werror has not.

Silently accepting and ignoring it, seems not to be the right way. The simple
solution is not to accept -pedantic-errors (and to point to -Werror) or to turn
on -Werror for -pedantic-errors. Both are rather easy solutions - and feel a
bit clumsy. It needs presumably quite a lot of work to support -pedantic-errors
properly.

First and simpler step should be to change "Warning:" into "Error:" for -Werror
to be in line with the C front end.
