Description

```julia
julia> @q @time(1+1)
:(#= REPL[5]:1 =# @time 1 + 1)
```

It could be fixed by postwalking and changing all the `:macrocall`s to have `nothing` for the line number, I believe?

Research direction

Reproduce the reported `@q @time(1+1)` expression in Julia and inspect the `@q` handling of `:macrocall` expressions in MacroTools.jl. Confirm how line-number metadata is retained, then verify that quoted macro calls produce the intended expression without the reported line-number issue.
