Fix parsing of OCaml code by ocamlyacc #1012

ocamlyacc would missparse certain valid OCaml code. As shown in MPR#7454 and MPR#7455, this can cause valid .mly files to be rejected, and for certain invalid files to be compiled to OCaml code that segfaults, without the .mly file containing any unsafe functions.

This patch fixes both problems.

Thanks for the patch - a few things, though, please. There are various things which look unrelated to the two PRs (sorry if I'm misreading the code) - this single commit seems to combine some tidying, some necessary refactoring and fixing two PRs. I think I'm correct that fixing the actual code changes for the two PRs are not directly related, so please could you split it into four commits to create a slightly more bisect-able story:

  1. Tidying any superfluous code (is that just a legacy of its original porting from yacc?)
  2. Refactoring: the moving of caml_ident_start, etc. and moving unchanged bodies of code out to process_quoted_string, etc.
  3. Fix one PR
  4. Fix the other PR

Please also do a Changes entry (again, these aren't related so it should be really be two entries - it's fine fixing in one pull request, of course) and if you could bear to turn the two sample files you sent into testsuite tests, that would be great (I can do that afterwards if you don't have time/inclination).

The %ident and %union directives don't make sense for OCaml,
and generated broken OCaml code.  Just drop support for them.
The processing of apostrophes, quoted strings and comments was
duplicated in at least two places.  This refactors both into
functions.

Also move the bitmap code, for use by later changes.
This adds support for parsing of raw OCaml strings.
This uses an explicit stack to keep track of parentheses and curly
braces in actions.
A'"'" was misparsed (the ' was not associated with the A as it should
be)
This adds a partial testcase for the better lexing of
OCaml code by ocamlyacc, as well as a bug fix.
It was left from the conversion of Berkely Yacc to ocamlyacc

Sorry for the delay looking at this - many thanks for the refactoring and the extra parts! I'm just running it through the full CI at Inria, as that includes a few other C compilers, but I propose merging once that's complete.

OK, the failures in precheck on mingw32/mingw64 are unrelated, so merging.

In the Changes file, this change is marked as compatibility-breaking (use of the * bullet instead of -). @DemiMarie, how does it break compatibility (besides fixing wrong behaviors)?
