This patch does 2 things
1) allow assert statements inside section scripts. This means one
doesn't have to write the awful
foo : {
. = . + (ASSERT (foo, bar) & 0);
}
any more.
I also changed the lexer to not allow ',' in NAMES when in expression
mode. I kept getting tripped up by
ASSERT (FOO, "FOO zero");
which parses the first token as "FOO,". Also I recently got bitten by
EXTERN which allows both comma and whitespace to separate the symbol
names. Thus
EXTERN (FOO, BAR, BAZ)
parses ok, but does not pull in the symbols you think it might.
there was a mistake in the patch, which I didn't notice due to lack of a
testcase. I've fixed the grammar problem and added an EXTERN testcase to check
it. ok?

* ldlex.l: ASSERT is recognized in SCRIPT env. NAMES cannot
contain commas in EXP env.
* ldgram.y (extern_name_list): Push to EXP env, move body to ...
(extern_name_list_body): ... here.
(script_file, ifile_list): Reformat.
(statement): Add ASSERT.
