diagnostics: Add a procedural variant of diagnostic procedures.

Callers can pass 'report-error', 'warning', etc. to 'apply'.

* guix/diagnostics.scm (trivial-format-string?): New procedure, moved
from...
(highlight-argument): ... here.
(define-diagnostic): Add 'identifier?' clause.
(emit-diagnostic): New procedure.
