    Document that flymake-diag-region saves match data
    
    The typical use of this function (which is parsing compiler diagnostic
    messages), lends itself too easily to one the problems in bug#29193.
    Make it a friendlier API.
    
    * doc/misc/flymake.texi (Flymake utility functions): Document that
    flymake-diag-region saves match data.
    
    * lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (flymake-diag-region): Document that
    this saves match data.
