Hello!

Sorry for posting so late but here is the first update of Milestone 2 of #SAOC2020

The plans for this past week were to add the start locations to all the AST nodes that lack it. Here is what I have done so far:
- Removed TOK.arrow as I noticed it was unused [1]
- Added the start location to DebugCondition and VersionCondition [2]
- Started working on adding location to linkage symbols [3]

Next steps:
- Bring all DMD as a library additions hidden behind a version under DMDLIB (as this would be a fast change)
- Continue adding locations to the remaining AST nodes

The tasks I plan to do during this milestone can be found here [4]

It's great to see some progress. I think it's worth mentioning that the PR for adding location file offsets has been merged [1]. Keep up the good work.
