[Bug fortran/33269] New: Diagnose missing "(" in "PRINT ('a'),"

[burnus at gcc dot gnu dot org]

The format must be '(a)' and not 'a', however, gfortran does not diagnose this
in

PRINT ('a'), 'Hello'

NAG f95:
Error: a.f90, line 1: Missing left parenthesis in format specification
ifort:
Error: First non-blank character in a character type format specifier must be a
left parenthesis.

Without the outer parenthesis, gfortran detects this:

print 'a', 'Hello'
                 1
Error: Missing leading left parenthesis in format string at (1)

[The position of the "1" could also be better.]
