[csolution] review error messages

The Problem To Be Solved

VS Code shows error messages like this which is a little overwelming:

Suggest A Solution

Keep messages shorter:

• 'was' is a redundant word
• As the error is listed under a context, the information about the context for the run command is irrelevant
• the message "error processing context" is irrelevant (as there are errors listed for this context already). The message itself does not add new information.

The messages are taken from the *.cbuild-idx.yml where they have a context. When used at the command line the error message may not have that context. Needs investigation.

@ReinhardKeil Please find my comments on the suggested solution after the investigation:

• Yes as correctly pointed out by @jkrech , Adding context information as part of the error message or the processing context error message—seems to be intended for command-line usage, where the user may or may not have a specified context.

• It's important to note that the error processing context acts as both informational and a separator for multiple errors occurring in different contexts. For example, Here is the series of error messages from one of example:

line1: error csolution: redefinition from 'conflict' into 'renaming_conflict' is not allowed
line2: error csolution: processing context 'outputFiles.BaseNameConflict+Target' failed
line3: error csolution: output 'lib' is incompatible with other output types
line4: error csolution: processing context 'outputFiles.TypeConflict+Target' failed

Here, the error messages on line 1 and line 3 lack context information. However, the lines below them provide a hint about the context in which these errors occurred.

In my opinion, the error: processing context message should be removed. However, we should instead add the relevant context information to each individual error message for command line usage. That said, this approach won't fully resolve this issue, as the context information will still be present within the context-specific nodes listed in *.cbuild-idx.yml.
