(for instance *p was not allowed on the left side of "="). Changed
to Expression everywhere (this is too liberal, UnaryExpr is probably
good enough, but it seems funny, and we need to check semantically
anyway). This matches 6g yacc.
- Write expression syntac recursively to express evaluation order
and precedence syntactically.
- Organized open issues list, folded in stuff from todo.txt which
is now obsolete.

- allow for empty import, const, type, and var decl lists inside ()'s
- fixed grammar for inc/dec statements

- leave only basic type conversions in that section
- we have a section of composite literals which covers those
- we have a section prepared (but not written) on type guards
- the built-in function "convert" doesn't need to be exposed
as it is redundant

other control structures.

- clarified constants and constant expressions
- clarified type of array composite literals (fixed vs open arrays)

a map pointer)

separate between ints and floats, added language regarding the
type of numeric literals)
- added language with respect to the scope of labels
- introduced ideal types for the purpose of the spec
- added language to expressions, operands
- added some more formal language about ideal type conversion
(probably not 100% correct yet)

- removed "func" from function type
- make it work by changing composite literal syntax to use {} instead of ()
FunctionType is now more in line with the rest of the declarations, as the
keyword "func" is now really part of the declaration and not part of the type.

old form, or that we have corresponding updated sections for it

- All text taken from go_lang.txt (which is unchanged),
but added a contents section, and sorted the contents
section in a hopefully sensible manner to give it more
structure
- Reordered text to match order of contents section,
did not adjust the language (needs to be done),
but removed sections that were dulicates or invalid
High-level organization of the doc:
- Introduction
- Notation
- Source code representation
- Vocabulary
- Declarations and scope rules
- Types
- Expressions
- Statements
- Function declarations
- Packages
- Program initialization and execution
I hope this new structure will make it much clearer which
pieces are missing and where they need to go. go_lang.txt
has grown somewhat unstructured and new text was added as
we saw fit.
