    py: Simplify "and" action within parser by making ident-rules explicit. · 0c1de1cd
    Damien George authored
    Most grammar rules can optimise to the identity if they only have a single
    argument, saving a lot of RAM building the parse tree.  Previous to this
    patch, whether a given grammar rule could be optimised was defined (mostly
    implicitly) by a complicated set of logic rules.  With this patch the
    definition is always specified explicitly by using "and_ident" in the rule
    definition in the grammar.  This simplifies the logic of the parser,
    making it a bit smaller and faster.  RAM usage in unaffected.
