The current approach was too adhoc: the symbols were not sufficiently
self-contained, in particular wrt memory management. The "new"
guideline is the one that should have been followed from the start:
let the symbols handle themslves, instead of leaving their users to
it. It was justified by the will to avoid gratuitious moves and
copies, but the current approach does not seem to be slower, yet it
will probably be simpler to adjust to support move semantics from
C++11.
The documentation says that the %parse-param are available from the
%destructor. In retrospect, that was a silly design decision, which
we can break for variants, as its a new feature. It should be phased
out for non-variants too.
* data/variant.hh: A variant never knows if it stores something or
not, it is up to its users to store this information.
Yet, in parse.assert mode, make sure the empty/filled variants
are properly used.
(b4_symbol_constructor_define_): Don't call directly the symbol
constructor, to save a useless temporary.
* data/stack.hh (push): Steal the pushed value instead of duplicating
it.
This will simplify the callers of push, who handled this "move"
approach themselves.
* data/c++.m4 (basic_symbol): Let -1, as kind, denote the fact that
a symbol is empty.
This is needed for instance when shifting the lookahead: yyla
is given as argument to "push", and its value is then moved on
the stack. But then yyla must be declared "empty" so that its
destructor won't be called.
(basic_symbol::move): New.
Move the responsibility of calling the destructor from yy_destroy
to ~basic_symbol in the case of variants.
* data/lalr1.cc (stack_symbol_type): Now a derived class from its
previous value, so that we can add a constructor from a symbol_type.
(by_state): State -1 means empty.
(yypush_): Factor, by calling one overload from the other one, and
using the new semantics of stack::push.
No longer reclaim by hand the memory from rhs symbols, since now
that we store objects with proper destructors, they will be reclaimed
automatically.
Conversely, be sure to delete yylhs.
* tests/c++.at (C++ Variant-based Symbols): New "unit" test for
symbols.

This change was made by applying emacs' untabify function to
nearly all files in Bison's repository. Required tabs in make
files, ChangeLog, regexps, and test code were manually skipped.
Other notable exceptions and changes are listed below.
* bootstrap: Skip because we sync this with gnulib.
* data/m4sugar/foreach.m4
* data/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4: Skip because we sync these with
Autoconf.
* djgpp: Skip because I don't know how to test djgpp properly, and
this code appears to be unmaintained anyway.
* README-hacking (Hacking): Specify that tabs should be avoided
where not required.
Currently, there is no check that %printer ... <foo> (nor
%destructor) is about an existing <foo> type. This C++ test had
it wrong (<::std::string> vs. <std::string>).
* tests/c++.at (AT_CHECK_VARIANTS): In list.yy, redefine the
pretty-printing of lists into something better for parser traces.
Update the expected output.
Fix correspondance between %type/%token and %printer.
* data/lalr1.cc (yyreduce): Compute the resulting state before
running the user action so that yylhs is a valid symbol.
(yyerrorlab): Since yylhs is complete (it knows its type), we can
simply call yy_destroy_ to destroy $$ on YYERROR invocations.
* tests/c++.at (AT_CHECK_VARIANTS): Test YYERROR with variants.

There are two issues to handle: first scanning nested angle bracket pairs
to support types such as std::pair< std::string, std::list<std::string> > >.
Another issue is to address idiosyncracies of C++: do not glue two closing
angle brackets together (otherwise it's operator>>), and avoid sticking
blindly a TYPE to the opening <, as it can result in '<:' which is a
digraph for '['.
