Make the WebIDLError constructor take a list of locations.

Hm, this may have been a good opportunity to use Python's *arg syntax:

  def __init__(self, message, *locations):

There may be a way to shim the warning=False arg into there (although I don't see how that would work), but we could also have WebIDLError and WebIDLWarning as separate classes.

OTOH the list is totally clear, and I don't think we have to mess with this further unless you want to.

To make sure I understood why you did this: You want BuiltinLocation to have an extra blank line to match Location's _pointerline marker?

Hmm.  I added it because stuff was ending up on the same line to my eyes, but yes, looks like that's the main effect.
