refactor and regularise label/statement grammar
Refactoring of the grammar around statements. New production <barestmt> encompasses a statement without label. It includes all statement types, including declarations, with no unnecessary intermediate non-terminals. It generates an op tree for the statement's content, with no leading state op. The <fullstmt> production has just one rule, consisting of optional label followed by <barestmt>. It puts a state op on the front of the statement's content ops. To support the regular statement op structure, the op sequence for for(;;) loops no longer has a second state op between the initialisation and the loop. Instead, the unstack op type is slightly adapted to achieve the stack clearing without a state op. The newFOROP() constructor function no longer generates a state op, that now being the job of the <fullstmt> production. Consequently it no longer takes a parameter stating what label is to go in the state op. This brings it in line with the other op constructors.
