In the same places as state changes are allowed, i.e. in places where a parent of the AST node is a WHILE/DO/FOR or an IF without ELSE, it's allowed to use return statements with expressions that return void, e.g. llDie(), provided the function itself is declared as returning void.
The construction, when found, is rewritten to '{<void expression>; return;}' because the optimizer is not designed to deal with these monsters.
We've renamed the variable SuspiciousStSw to PruneBug, because it's used for both purposes now, though a better name might have been PruneBugPendingChecks, because these are only errors if the IF has an ELSE. We've also added the exception to raise as part of the data stored in the list.

Revert "Add support for C11-style _Pragma operator on processpre".
Revert "Add unit test for the _Pragma operator".
This reverts commits 31fcb331c7 and e261ac2121.
This should rather be the job of the preprocessor, which should generate #pragma lines. gcc does that.
Reverts f958b1cdf9, and adds the possibility of adding parameters after the system-inserted ones through a new command line parameter -A/--postarg.
Enables using e.g. both a command interpreter which requires the file to execute before any other parameters, and overriding the default definitions.
A minor difference is that strings and whitespace are parsed according to LSL rules, not to C rules, since this processing is performed in the lexer.
This could be fixed, but is it worth the trouble?
Includes PCPP as a submodule (which in turn pulls PLY as a submodule, so be sure to initialize submodules recursively). Also includes a file to interface PCPP with the optimizer, patching its behaviour according to our needs.
Special thanks to Niall Douglas and David Bezley for authoring PCPP.
This is a first try at redundant jump removal (jumps that target the very next instruction). It's too basic in several ways.
- The statement is replaced by a ';' instead of removed.
- If the jump was the only statement in an if, when the if becomes empty, it's not folded.
- Jumps that are last in the 'then' branch of if+else are not visible. This would need either to track multiple last statements, or to have some means to anticipate what the next statement is at every statement. A Control Flow Graph would help a lot.
- When a label is immediately followed by a jump, all jumps to that label should target the destination of that jump if it's in scope. Added to TODO.
- It misses some optimizations when not expanding WHILE and FOR into IF/JUMP.
Moving everything to an earlier stage would help with some of these, especially with ';' and 'if' folding. Unconditionally expanding WHILE and FOR would also help.
