What's happening here is that the current shell logic doesn't update line
numbers when inside a trap, even inside nested functions.  The idea is that
you're interested in the line number of what triggered the trap; this is
particularly true of a DEBUG trap where you might want to examine LINENO to
see what's going on in the code you're debugging, and you're much less
likely to be interested in the line number inside the trap itself.

So the obvious fix is to make the prompt code I added take account of
this.

Another possibility would be to make traps respect the EVALLINENO option,
so that you would get the local line numbers.  However, I think that's less
useful.

It's possible the same problem affects some of the other new features.  In
particular I think funcstack line number info for eval commands inside
traps is going to get thoroughly confused.  I think the simplest fix would
be not to add funcstack info for eval in this case; this is sort of
plausible since it's like the case where eval isn't keep track of its own
line numbers, where we don't add funcstack info, and we don't add funcstack
info for a trap which is like an eval without its own line number.
Otherwise it's not currently obvious to me what the fix would be.

It might be a good idea to add special variables ZSH_SOURCE_LINENO and
ZSH_SOURCE_FILE as more readable alternatives to ${(%):-%I} and
${(%):-%x}.
