David Majda 2d36ebeb59 Mental model change: Variables do not form a stack, they are registers
This commit changes the model underlying parser variables used to store
match results and parse positions. Until now they were treated as a
stack, now they are thought of as registers. The actual behavior does
not change (yet), only the terminology.

More specifically, this commit:

  * Changes parser variable names from |result0|, |result1|, etc. to
    |r0|, |r1|, etc.

  * Changes various internal names and comments to match the new model.

  * Renames the |computeVarIndices| pass to |allocateRegisters|.

PEG.js Spec Suite
=================

This is the PEG.js spec suite. It ensures PEG.js works correctly. All specs
should always pass on all supported platforms.

Running in a browser
--------------------

  1. Start a web server and make it serve the PEG.js root directory (one level
     up from this one).

  2. Point your browser to an URL corresponding to the index.html file.

  3. Watch the specs pass (or fail).

If you have Python installed, you can just run the following command in the
PEG.js root directory

  python -m SimpleHTTPServer

and load http://localhost:8000/spec/ in your browser.

Running from a command-line
---------------------------

  1. Make sure you have Node.js and the "jasmine-node" npm pacakge installed.

  2. Run the following command:

       jasmine-node --verbose .

  3. Watch the specs pass (or fail).
