Subject: [PATCH] Support explicit conditional blocks

Explicit conditional blocks are e.g. necessary to support introducing the
 expansion of a list with an optional header, like in the following example:

```mustache
{{?products}}
Product names:
  {{#products}}
  - {{name}}
  {{/products}}
{{/products}}
{{^products}}
No products
{{/products}}
```

I did not include tests, because their data is included in the corresponding
 pull request to the Mustache spec.
