Currently it is the front end that passes the symbol types to the
backend. For instance:
%token <ival> NUM
%type <ival> exp1 exp2
exp1: NUM { $$ = $1; }
exp2: NUM { $<ival>$ = $<ival>1; }
In both cases, $$ and $1 are passed to the backend as having type
'ival' resulting in code like `val.ival`. This is troublesome in the
case of api.value.type=union, since in that the case the code this:
%define api.value.type union
%token <int> NUM
%type <int> exp1 exp2
exp1: NUM { $$ = $1; }
exp2: NUM { $<int>$ = $<int>1; }
because in this case, since the backend does not know the symbol being
processed, it is forced to generate casts in both cases: *(int*)(&val)`.
This is unfortunate in the first case (exp1) where there is no reason
at all to use a cast instead of `val.NUM` and `val.exp1`.
So instead delegate the computation of the actual value type to the
backend: pass $<ival>$ as `symbol-number, ival` and $$ as
`symbol-number, MULL`, instead of passing `ival` before.
* src/scan-code.l (handle_action_dollar): Find the symbol the action

Prefer POS to denote the position of a symbol in a rule, since NUM
is also used to denote symbol numbers.
The code was already using midrule only, never mid_rule. This is
simpler to remember, and matches a similar change we made from
look-ahead to lookahead.

Prompted on Piotr Marcińczyk's message:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2017-06/msg00000.html.
See also http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2018-06/msg00001.html.
Because their type is unknown to Bison, the values of midrule actions are
not treated like the others: they don't have %printer and %destructor
support. In addition, in C++, (Bison) variants cannot work properly.
Typed midrule actions address these issues. Instead of:
exp: { $<ival>$ = 1; } { $<ival>$ = 2; } { $$ = $<ival>1 + $<ival>2; }
write:
exp: <ival>{ $$ = 1; } <ival>{ $$ = 2; } { $$ = $1 + $2; }
* src/scan-code.h, src/scan-code.l (code_props): Add a `type` field to
record the declared type of an action.
(code_props_rule_action_init): Add a type argument.
* src/parse-gram.y: Accept an optional type tag for actions.
* src/reader.h, src/reader.c (grammar_current_rule_action_append): Add
a type argument.
(grammar_midrule_action): When a mid-rule is typed, pass its type to
the defined dummy non terminal symbol.
There are warnings (-Wextra) in generated C++ code:

A static analysis tool reports that some callers of symbol_list_n_get

Provide a means to dereference pointers when defining tags. One
example could be:
%code requires

{

float floatVal;
char* charptrVal;
} value;
struct ListElementType* next;
} ListElementType;
}
%union
{
ListElementType* list;
}
%token <list->value.charptrVal> STRING
%token <list->value.intVal> INTEGER
%token <list->value.floatVal> REAL
%type <list> ElementList LiteralType
* src/scan-code.l, src/scan-gram.l: Accept "->" in tags.
* tests/types.at: Add more test cases to cover this case.
Bison 3.0 is already breaking backward compatibility with other

The conversion from @ to @@ and so forth is coded is too many
different places. Factor, a bit.

The logic to compute the %printer or %destructor to used (i.e., a
code_props) is implemented twice: one, of course, in
symbol_code_props_get, and another time in symbol_check_defined to
record the fact that a code_props is used (so that we can reported
unused ones). Let the former use the latter.
I would probably use "mutable" in C++ and keep these guys const,
but this is C. And casting away constness triggers warnings.

* src/symtab.c (symbol_check_defined): If a symbol does not have a
destructor (resp. printer) but has a type which has a destructor (resp.
printer), then set field 'is_used' to true.

but all symbols of this type have already a destructor (resp. printer),

Updating to gnulib pulled in new quote and quotarg modules,
