David Majda 516023546d Use one var/let/const per variable (for initialized variables)
Use one var/let/const per variable, but only for initialized variables.
Uninitialized variables are still grouped into one var/let/const
declaration as I don't see any value in separating them. This approach
reflects the fact that initialized and uninitialized var/let/const
declarations are really two different things.

See #443.

David Majda bdf91b5941 Replace "var" with "let" & "const"
This is purely a mechanical change, not taking advantage of block scope
of "let" and "const". Minimizing variable scope will come in the next
commit.

In general, "var" is converted into "let" and "const" is used only for
immutable variables of permanent character (generally spelled in
ALL_CAPS). Using it for any immutable variable regardless on its
permanence would feel confusing.

Any code which is not transpiled and needs to run in ES6 environment
(examples, code in grammars embedded in specs, ...) is kept unchanged.
This is also true for code generated by PEG.js.

See #442.

David Majda 67d85f2de8 Align names of compiler passes that detect infinite loops
Rename compiler passes as follows:

  reportLeftRecursion -> reportInfiniteRecursion
  reportInfiniteLoops -> reportInfiniteRepetition

This reflects the fact that both passes detect different ways of causing
the same problem (possible infinite loop when parsing).
