  1. Add the --caret-diagnostic flag 

    When the --caret-diagnostic flag is set, the diagnostic message contains
3 lines:
  - the first line contains the filename, line number and column number,
    followed by wrong word, right word and reason
  - the second line contains the content of the offending line
  - the third line contains the caret, showing the offending word

This is the format used by modern compilers when reporting a diagnostic
message.  The color of the caret is bold cyan.

This new format should improve the user experience, compared to the
context format.
