Finish implementation of per-type %destructor/%printer. Discussed

starting at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-02/msg00064.html>
and
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-06/msg00091.html>.
* NEWS (2.3+): Add a description of this feature to the default
%destructor/%printer description.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Freeing Discarded Symbols): Likewise.
* src/symlist.c (symbol_list_destructor_set, symbol_list_printer_set):
Invoke semantic_type_destructor_set or semantic_type_printer_set when a
list node contains a semantic type.
* src/symtab.c, src/symtab.h: Extend with a table that associates
semantic types with their %destructor's and %printer's.
(semantic_type_from_uniqstr, semantic_type_get,
semantic_type_destructor_set, semantic_type_printer_set): New functions
composing the public interface of that table.
(symbol_destructor_get, symbol_destructor_location_get,
symbol_printer_get, symbol_printer_location_get):  If there's no
per-symbol %destructor/%printer, look up the per-type before trying
the default.
* tests/actions.at (Per-type %printer and %destructor): New test case.
* tests/input.at (Default %printer and %destructor redeclared):
Extend to check that multiple occurrences of %symbol-default in a
single %destructor/%printer declaration is an error.
(Per-type %printer and %destructor redeclared, Unused values with
per-type %destructor): New test cases.

The additional parser parameters are also available (@pxref{Parser Function, ,

When a symbol is listed among @var{symbols}, its @code{%destructor} is called a
per-symbol @code{%destructor}.
You may also define a per-type @code{%destructor} by listing a semantic type
among @var{symbols}.
In that case, the parser will invoke this @var{code} whenever it discards any
grammar symbol that has that semantic type unless that symbol has its own
per-symbol @code{%destructor}.
Finally, you may define a default @code{%destructor} by placing
@code{%symbol-default} in the @var{symbols} list of exactly one
@code{%destructor} declaration in your grammar file.
In that case, the parser will invoke the associated @var{code} whenever it
discards any user-defined grammar symbol for which there is no per-type or
per-symbol @code{%destructor}.
