The compiler's handling of the aggregation of mandatory warnings into "notes" at the end of compilation can be refactored to simplify the code.
The `JCDiagnostic` class supports flags that alter how warnings are handled, e.g., `MANDATORY`, `NON_DEFERRABLE`, etc. So instead of having to log aggregated mandatory warnings through a separate channel (the `MandatoryWarningHandler`), these warnings could instead be logged just like any other warning, but with an `AGGREGATED` flag added. The actual aggregation can then be handled "behind the scenes" by the logging subsystem.
This will also make it easier to implement `@SuppressAnnotations` support for parser/tokenizer warnings which require aggregated mandatory warning notes such as warnings for preview features.
