patman: Format checkpatch messages for IDE throwback
It is convenient to be able to deal with checkpatch warnings in the same way as build warnings. Tools such as emacs and kate can quickly locate the source file and line automatically. To achieve this, adjust the format to match the C compiler, and output to stderr. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
