An option to disable formatting for macro definitions

Clang Frontend

Hi!
So far I haven’t found a way to tell clang-format to not touch macro definitions. I’ve run into two cases where I think clang-format is doing the wrong thing:
First:

#define A(x) x:

will be formatted as:

#define A(x) \
    x:

and second case:

#define A A is deprecated. Use B instead.

will become:

#define A A is deprecated.Use B instead.

A flag like IncludeMacroDefintions set to false should be a pretty straightforward solution.

That would be a nice blanket option yes. In the meantime, you can use /* clang-format off */ and /* clang-format on */ comments.

Thank you for the reply!
I’ll create a feature request on github for it.
