2021-02-17treewide: rewrite ucode interpreterJo-Philipp Wich
Replace the former AST walking interpreter implementation with a single pass bytecode compiler and a corresponding virtual machine. The rewrite lays the groundwork for a couple of improvements with will be subsequently implemented: - Ability to precompile ucode sources into binary byte code - Strippable debug information - Reduced runtime memory usage Signed-off-by: Jo-Philipp Wich <jo@mein.io>

2020-11-02syntax: support `elif` clauses for alternative `if` syntaxJo-Philipp Wich
In the alternative `if` syntax mode, support a specific `elif` keyword instead of requiring an `else` branch followed by a disjunct `if` statement. The advantage is that templates do not require error-prone redundant `endif` keywords in else-if ladders. After this change, the following example: {% if (...): %} One condition {% else if (...): %} Another condition {% else if (...): %} A third condition {% else %} Final condition {% endif; endif; endif %} ... can be simplified into: {% if (...): %} One condition {% elif (...): %} Another condition {% elif (...): %} A third condition {% else %} Final condition {% endif %} Signed-off-by: Jo-Philipp Wich <jo@mein.io>
2020-10-14lexer: rewriteJo-Philipp Wich
Rewrite the lexer into a restartable state machine to support parsing from file streams without the need to read the entire source text into memory first. As a side effect, the length of labels and strings is unlimited now. Signed-off-by: Jo-Philipp Wich <jo@mein.io>

2020-09-06treewide: refactor internal AST structuresJo-Philipp Wich
- unify operand and value tag structures - use a contiguous array for storing opcodes - use relative offsets for next and children ops - defer function creation to runtime - rework "this" context handling by storing context pointer in scope tags Signed-off-by: Jo-Philipp Wich <jo@mein.io>
