Fix some comments concerning LR(0) versus LALR(1).

Stop equating LR(0) with nondeterminism and LALR(1) with
determinism.  That is, if all states are consistent, then LR(0)
tables are deterministic.  On the other hand, LALR(1) tables
might be nondeterministic before conflict resolution, and GLR
permits LALR(1) tables to remain nondeterministic.
