[Ironruby-core] Code Review: ParseTree5

[Tomas Matousek]

ir_parse_tree.rb is just a copy of parse_tree.rb from ParseTree gem with C code replaced by a call to IronRuby. I haven't modified anything other than that.

In ir_parse_tree.rb, there's code near the bottom that's 'if RUBY_VERSION > "1.9"'.  Is that version check a typo or does it actually reflect differences between 1.9 and 1.9.1?

Otherwise, changes look good.  And exciting!

Comment  :
  Bunch of tweaks to AST:
  - removes some nodes that are notneeded any more,
  - moves block argument out of Arguments to CallExpression,

  Fixes several bugs:
  - order of evaluation in "(x,y) while z",
  - passing parameters to a super method when a block is specified "super {}",
  - yield should report an error when a block argument is given "yield &p"

  Implements ParseTree library
  - there are few nodes that are to be finished,
  - in some cases the generated parse tree deosn't exactly match MRI (some of which I consider bugs in MRI),
  - adds ir_parse_tree.rb that implements the same API as parse_tree.rb calling to IronRuby for tree transformation,
  - only string parsing is supported now, getting AST from method/class at runtime is not yet implemented.
