[messages] Stop using withArgumentsOld, batch 19.

This is one of several planned batches of changes to transition the
front end (and related packages) away from the old `withArgumentsOld`
diagnostic reporting method, and to the new `withArguments`
method. The difference between the two is that `withArguments` has
named parameters rather than positional ones, so (a) it's less likely
for parameters to be mixed up, and (b) it's compatible with the
calling conventions used by analyzer diagnostics.

As part of this transition, I'm taking the opportunity to rename the
parameters themselves (since the names previously were restricted to a
very small set of possibilities based on type), and to document them
in `messages.yaml`. To avoid fatigue (both for myself and code
reviewers), I've chosen to break the change into many smaller batches.

The only changes in this CL that were manually written are those in
`messages.yaml`. The others were produced by running the standard
diagnostic message code generator and then running the script
`use_new_with_arguments.dart`.

Dart

An approachable, portable, and productive language for high-quality apps on any platform

Dart is:

  • Approachable: Develop with a strongly typed programming language that is consistent, concise, and offers modern language features like null safety and patterns.

  • Portable: Compile to ARM, x64, or RISC-V machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Compile to JavaScript or WebAssembly for the web.

  • Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app. Diagnose app issues using DevTools.

Dart's flexible compiler technology lets you run Dart code in different ways, depending on your target platform and goals:

  • Dart Native: For programs targeting devices (mobile, desktop, server, and more), Dart Native includes both a Dart VM with JIT (just-in-time) compilation and an AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler for producing machine code.

  • Dart Web: For programs targeting the web, Dart Web includes both a development time compiler (dartdevc) and a production time compiler (dart2js).
