    Add parser support for generators. · 2816f196
    mstarzinger@chromium.org authored
    This patchset begins by adding support for "yield", which is unlike other tokens
    in JS. In a generator, whether strict or classic, it is a syntactic keyword.
    In classic mode it is an identifier. In strict mode it is reserved.
    
    This patch adds YIELD as a token to the scanner, and adapts the preparser and
    parser appropriately. It also parses "function*", indicating that a function is
    actually a generator, for both eagerly and lazily parsed functions.
    
    Currently "yield" just compiles as "return".
