[TRAFODION-2380] New script to help automate Message Guide updating work This new script is designed to help automate development work on the Messages Guide. In its initial guise, the script does the following: 1. Compares the text in SqlciErrors.txt with that in the Messages Guide 2. Produces a report of mismatched messages. For each mismatched message it shows: a. The message text in each of SqlciErrors.txt and the Messages Guide b. Any enums used in the code to refer to the message number c. A list of regress tests whose expected files might have examples of the message d. Optionally, a list of all C++ source files with possible references to the message number (this option is very slow unfortunately) With this information a developer can quickly identify what messages in the Message Guide are out-of-date or missing. If the developer decides to change the text in SqlciErrors.txt, he/she can also see what regression test expected files need to be updated. If option d is specified (--codeRefs), the developer will also have a list of files in the code where the message is generated. But this option presently takes six or seven hours to run and so is best done overnight.
