The intention is to avoid reporting two errors via stdout that have the exact same message and position, which provides no value to the user.
Currently, Silicon implements this itself, but Carbon does not. This PR adds an implementation in Silver to replace the one in Silicon (and in the process ensure that the filtering only happens when outputting to stdout, since the filtering can cause issues for frontends, see viperproject/silicon#735).
