Fuse the three stacks into a single one.

In order to make it easy to perform benchmarks to ensure that there are no
performance loss, lalr1.cc is forked into lalr1-fusion.cc.  Eventually,
lalr1-fusion.cc will replace lalr1.cc.

Meanwhile, to make sure that lalr1-fusion.cc is correctly exercized by the
test suite, the user must install a symbolic link from lalr1.cc to it.

Instead of having three stacks (state, value, location), use a stack
of triples.  This considerably simplifies the code (and it will be
easier not to require locations as currently does the C++ parser),
and also gives a 10% speedup according to etc/bench (probably mainly since
memory allocation is done once instead of three times).

Another motivation is to make it easier to destruct properly
semantic values: now that they are bound to their state (hence
symbol type) it will be easier to call the appropriate destructor.

These changes should probably benefit the C parser too.

Push the state, value, and location at the same time.
