What this PR does / why we need it:
Fixes variables being able to be self-assigned through initialization expressions (#420).
Example:
The problem is that the compiler creates symbol
test
before generating the code for its initialization expression, sotest
can be used in that expression.This PR simply makes the compiler temporarily mark the newly created symbol as undefined (until the code for the initialization expression is emitted) and issue an error if the symbol for a local variable is undefined.
Which issue(s) this PR fixes:
Fixes #420
