This commit changes the warning from:

to:

foo.yy:1.5-18: warning: deprecated directive [-Wdeprecated]
  %error-verbose
  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  %define parse.error verbose

For the records, when caret-errors are disabled, we have (independently of this 
proposed change):

foo.yy:1.1-14: warning: deprecated directive: '%error-verbose', use '%define 
parse.error verbose' [-Wdeprecated]


I find the new diagnostic confusing, as it's not clear to the non-expert what the "%define parse.error verbose" means. The old diagnostic (or the one with caret-errors disabled) is clearer.
