Btw, we have quite a few commands that accept addresses as argument,
but the manual never explicitly tells what is a valid address
specification, except piece by piece spread between the individual
commands.

Unless I'm missing something, I'd like to add a node with an
exhaustive definition of an address (or LINESPEC), and then add
cross-references to that place whenever we talk about addresses.  Does
the below list all the possible use cases?

   . LINENO
   . FILENAME:LINENO
   . FUNCTION
   . FILENAME:FUNCTION
   . +OFFSET
   . -OFFSET
   . *FUNCTION
   . *FILENAME:FUNCTION
   . *EXPRESSION
