Context_free.special_function: fix the parsing of indexing operators #494

Currently, indexing operators are misparsed by ppxlib in Context_free.special_function because the Longident parsing code stops on the first closing parenthesis in (.!(;..)) and fails with an invalid argument because this first closing parenthesis is not at the end of the identifier.

This PR fixes this issue by finding the first pair of matched parentheses and add a test for the indexing operator cases.
Along the way, I added some more context on the Invalid_argument error.

Note that I am also tempted to propose a version of special_function that doesn't parse its argument and takes a longident directly to avoid this recurring issue.

Looks good, thanks for taking the time to fix this!

Could you add a changelog entry mentioning the fix?

I have added a change entry added, with a off-by-one fix and some new tests for unbalanced parentheses (e.g "(").

- Fix a bug where `Code_path.main_module_name` would not properly remove
  extensions from the filename and therefore return an invalid module name.
  (ocaml-ppx/ppxlib#512, @NathanReb)

- Add `-unused-type-warnings` flag to the driver to allow users to disable
  only the generation of warning 34 silencing structure items when using
  `[@@deriving ...]` on type declarations. (ocaml-ppx/ppxlib#511, @mbarbin, @NathanReb)

- Make `-unused-code-warnings` flag to the driver also controls the generation
  of warning 34 silencing structure items when using `[@@deriving ...]` on type
  declarations. (ocaml-ppx/ppxlib#510, @mbarbin, @NathanReb)

- Driver: Add `-unused-code-warnings=force` command-line flag argument. (ocaml-ppx/ppxlib#490, @mbarbin)

- new functions `Ast_builder.{e,p}list_tail` that take an extra tail
  expression/pattern argument parameter compared to `Ast_builder.{e,p}list`, so
  they can build ASTs like `a :: b :: c` instead of only `[ a; b ]`.
  (ocaml-ppx/ppxlib#498, ocaml-ppx/ppxlib#502, @v-gb, @NathanReb)

- Fix `Longident.parse` so it also handles indexing operators such as
  `.!()`, `.%(;..)<-`, or `Vec.(.%())` (ocaml-ppx/ppxlib#494, @Octachron)

- Add a `special_function'` variant which directly takes a `Longident.t`
  argument to avoid the issue that `Longident.t` cover distinct syntaxic classes
  which cannot be easily parsed by a common parser (ocaml-ppx/ppxlib#496, @Octachron).

- Keep location ranges consistent when migrating `Pexp_function` nodes from 5.2+
  to older versions (ocaml-ppx/ppxlib#504, @jchavarri)

- Fix `-locations-check` behaviour so it is no longer required to pass `-check`
  as well to enable location checks. (ocaml-ppx/ppxlib#506, @NathanReb)
