[Bug c/44517] New: improve diagnostic for mispelled typename in function declaration

[manu at gcc dot gnu dot org]

Testcase:

int foo(int x, pid_t y) {
  return x+y;
}

gcc-4.6:

clang-5.c:1:16: error: expected declaration specifiers or ‘...’ before ‘pid_t’
 foo
clang-5.c: In function ‘foo’:
clang-5.c:2:12: error: ‘y’ undeclared (first use in this function)
clang-5.c:2:12: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each
function it appears in

clang:

t.c:1:16: error: unknown type name 'pid_t'
int foo(int x, pid_t y) {
               ^
