David Majda 2c8b323ade Replace variable name computations by computations of indices
This commit replaces all variable name computations in |computeVarNames|
and |computeParams| passes by computations of indices. The actual names
are computed later in the |generateCode| pass.

This change makes the code generator the only place that deals with the
actual variable names, making them easier to change for example.

The code generator code seems bit more complicated after the change, but
this complexity will pay off (and mostly disappear) later.

David Majda 725927e05f Change ordering of "action" code
Places all code that does something with "action" AST nodes under code
handling "choice" nodes.

This ordering is logical because now all the node handling code matches
the sequence in which various node types usually appear when descending
through the AST tree.

David Majda cdf23e0a49 Change ordering of "literal", "class" and "any" code
Changes all code that does something with "literal", "class" or "any"
AST nodes so that the code deals with these in the follwing order:

  1. literal
  2. class
  3. any

Previously the code used this ordering:

  1. literal
  2. any
  3. class

The new ordering is more logical because the nodes are handled from the
most specific to the most generic.

David Majda eb4badab24 Refactor named rules AST representation
PEG.js grammar rules are represented by |rule| nodes in the AST. Until
now, all such nodes had a |displayName| property which was either |null|
or stored rule's human-readable name. This commit gets rid of the
|displayName| property and starts representing rules with a
human-readable name using a new |named| node (a child of the |rule|
node).

This change simplifies code generation code a bit as tests for
|displayName| can be removed (see changes in generate-code.js). It also
separates different concerns from each other nicely.
