Description

The fhicl-expand utility expands inline the #include directives, but it does not say it's doing it.
When debugging some problem, that information might be useful. For example, in the case illustrated in issue #17893, it would allow to quickly know what file included the FHiCL file in the error message.
This is a request for an option --annotate-include (better name welcome) which would have fhicl-expand insert in the expansion annotations like:

### fhicl-expand: including "/path/to/include1.fcl" from "master.fcl" line 2

and
### fhicl-expand: end of included "/path/to/include1.fcl"

Note that in the use case in issue #17893, fhicl-dump would not help since it fails parsing and just prints an error message.
