This patch contains more fixes to prefer signed to unsigned
integer types, as modern tools like 'gcc -fsanitize=undefined'
can check for signed integer overflow but not unsigned overflow.
* NEWS: Document the API change.
* boostrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add intprops.
* data/skeletons/glr.c: Include stddef.h and stdint.h,
since this skeleton can assume C99 or later.
(YYSIZEMAX): Now signed, and the minimum of SIZE_MAX and PTRDIFF_MAX.
(yybool) [!__cplusplus]: Now signed (which is how bool behaves).
(YYTRANSLATE): Avoid use of unsigned, and make the macro
safe even for values greater than UINT_MAX.

Since Bison 3.3, semantic values in rule actions (i.e., '$...') are
passed to the m4 backend as the symbol number. Unfortunately, when
there are unused symbols, the symbols are renumbered _after_ the
numbers were used in the rule actions. As a result, the evaluation of
the skeleton failed because it used non existing symbol numbers.
Which is the happy scenario: we could use numbers of other existing
symbols...
Reported by Balázs Scheidler.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2019-01/msg00044.html
Translating the rule actions after the symbol renumbering moves too
many parts in bison. Relying on the symbol identifiers is more
troublesome than it might first seem: some don't have an
identifier (tokens with only a literal string), some might have a
complex one (tokens with a literal string with characters special for
M4). Well, these are tokens, but nterms also have issues: "dummy"
nterms (for midrule actions) are named $@32 etc. which is risky for
M4.
Instead, let's simply give M4 the mapping between the old numbers and
the new ones. To avoid confusion between old and new numbers, always
emit pre-renumbering numbers as "orig NUM".
* data/README: Give details about "orig NUM".
* data/skeletons/bison.m4 (__b4_symbol, _b4_symbol): Resolve the
"orig NUM".
* src/output.c (prepare_symbol_definitions): Pass nterm_map to m4.
* src/reduce.h, src/reduce.c (nterm_map): Extract it from
nonterminals_reduce, to make it public.
(reduce_free): Free it.
* src/scan-code.l (handle_action_dollar): When referring to a nterm,
use "orig NUM".
* tests/reduce.at (Useless Parts): New, based Balázs Scheidler's
report.
In the following grammar, the 'exp' nonterminal is trivially useless.
So, of course, its rules are useless too.
%%
input: '0' | exp
exp: exp '+' exp | exp '-' exp | '(' exp ')'
Previously all the useless rules were reported, including those whose
left-hand side is the 'exp' nonterminal:
warning: 1 nonterminal useless in grammar [-Wother]
warning: 4 rules useless in grammar [-Wother]
2.14-16: warning: nonterminal useless in grammar: exp [-Wother]
input: '0' | exp
^^^
2.14-16: warning: rule useless in grammar [-Wother]
input: '0' | exp
^^^
! 3.6-16: warning: rule useless in grammar [-Wother]
! exp: exp '+' exp | exp '-' exp | '(' exp ')'
! ^^^^^^^^^^^
! 3.20-30: warning: rule useless in grammar [-Wother]
! exp: exp '+' exp | exp '-' exp | '(' exp ')'
! ^^^^^^^^^^^
! 3.34-44: warning: rule useless in grammar [-Wother]
! exp: exp '+' exp | exp '-' exp | '(' exp ')'
! ^^^^^^^^^^^
The interest of being so verbose is dubious. I suspect most of the
time nonterminals are not expected to be useless, so the user wants to
fix the nonterminal, not remove its rules. And even if the user
wanted to get rid of its rules, the position of these rules probably
does not help more that just having the name of the nonterminal.
This commit discard these messages, marked with '!', and keep the
others. In particular, we still report:
2.14-16: warning: rule useless in grammar [-Wother]
input: '0' | exp
^^^
All the useless rules (including the '!' ones) are still reported in
the reports (xml, text, etc.); only the diagnostics on stderr change.

`destroyed'), we now sometimes examine them, and store information
related to them. Hence we need to know their number, and adjust
memory allocations.
* src/reduce.c, src/reduce.h (nuseless_nonterminals): No longer
static.
* src/LR0.c (allocate_itemsets): The memory allocated to
`symbol_count' was used for two different purpose: once to count
the number of occurrences of each symbol, and later reassigned to
`shift_symbol', containing the symbol that can be shifted from a
given state.
Deobfuscate, i.e., allocate, use and free `symbol_count' here
only, and...
(new_itemsets): Allocate `shift_symbol' here.
(allocate_itemsets): symbol_count includes useless nonterminals.
Make room for them.
(free_storage): Use `free', not `XFREE', for pointers that cannot
be null.
(reduce_output): This.
Output to OUT, passed as argument, instead of output_obstack.
(dump_grammar): Likewise.
(reduce_free): New.
Also free V1.
(reduce_grammar): No longer call reduce_output, since...
* src/print.c (print_results): do it.
* src/main.c (main): Call reduce_free;
