This is a translation of the yacc-based parser with adjustements
to make the grammar work for a recursive-descent parser followed
by cleanups and simplifications.
The yacc actions were mostly literally copied for correctness
with better temporary names.
A few of the syntax tests were adjusted for slightly different
error messages (it is very difficult to match the yacc-based
error messages in all cases, and sometimes the new parser could
produce better errors).
The new parser is enabled by default.
To switch back to the yacc-based parser, set -oldparser.
To hardwire the switch back, uncomment "oldparser = 1" in lex.go.
- passes all.bash
- ~18% reduced parse time per file on average for make.bash
- ~3% reduced compile time for building cmd/compile
