Change the output of show_ambiguous_object() added in [1] and last
tweaked in [2] and the preceding commit to be more friendly to
translators.
By being able to customize the "<SP><SP>%s\n" format we're even ready
for RTL languages, who'd presumably like to change that to
"%s<SP><SP>\n".
In the case of the existing "tag [tag could not be parsed]" output
we'll now instead emit "[bad tag, could not parse it]". This is
consistent with the "[bad object]" output. Rephrasing the message like
this is possible because we're not unconditionally adding the
type_name() at the beginning.
