mstarzinger@chromium.org 2816f19680 Add parser support for generators.
This patchset begins by adding support for "yield", which is unlike other tokens
in JS. In a generator, whether strict or classic, it is a syntactic keyword.
In classic mode it is an identifier. In strict mode it is reserved.

This patch adds YIELD as a token to the scanner, and adapts the preparser and
parser appropriately. It also parses "function*", indicating that a function is
actually a generator, for both eagerly and lazily parsed functions.

Currently "yield" just compiles as "return".
