Function __attributes__ is scoped as function calls

[karljs]

I see several other issues related to attributes, but this one seems like a separate bug since it's marking function attributes as function calls rather than just a less preferred attribute scope.

The code with a problem is:

int foo() __attribute__((always_inline))
// or any other function attribute

It looks like:

It should look like:

I'm not sure, but probably the blue __attribute__ should be black.

I don't belive that to be valid syntax.

An attribute specifier list may, in future, be permitted to appear after the declarator in a function definition (before any old-style parameter declarations or the function body).

Additionally, compilation fails: https://godbolt.org/z/GtgxRX

@matter123 Ah, I didn't realize this is clang-specific. Thanks for the pointer.

Huh, I wonder why clang added support for attributes there.
