This allows for the following syntax:
```ruby
def foo(*)
bar(*)
end
def baz(**)
quux(**)
end
```
This is a natural addition after the introduction of anonymous
block forwarding. Anonymous rest and keyword rest arguments were
already supported in method parameters, this just allows them to
be used as arguments to other methods. The same advantages of
anonymous block forwarding apply to rest and keyword rest argument
forwarding.
This has some minor changes to #parameters output. Now, instead
of `[:rest], [:keyrest]`, you get `[:rest, :*], [:keyrest, :**]`.
These were already used for `...` forwarding, so I think it makes
it more consistent to include them in other cases. If we want to
use `[:rest], [:keyrest]` in both cases, that is also possible.
I don't think the previous behavior of `[:rest], [:keyrest]` in
the non-... case and `[:rest, :*], [:keyrest, :**]` in the ...
case makes sense, but if we did want that behavior, we'll have to
make more substantial changes, such as using a different ID in the
... forwarding case.

This `NODE` type was used in pre-YARV implementation, to improve
the performance of assignment to dynamic local variable defined at
the innermost scope. It has no longer any actual difference with
`NODE_DASGN`, except for the node dump.
Dumped iseq binary can not have unnamed symbols/IDs, and ID 0 is
stored instead. As `struct rb_id_table` disallows ID 0, also for
the distinction, re-assign a new temporary ID based on the local
variable table index when loading from the binary, as well as the
parser.
The implementation of a local variable tables was represented as `ID*`,
but it was very hacky: the first element is not an ID but the size of
the table, and, the last element is (sometimes) a link to the next local
table only when the id tables are a linked list.
This change converts the hacky implementation to a normal struct.
block to another method without having to provide a name for the
block parameter.

`RubyVM.keep_script_lines` enables to keep script lines
for each ISeq and AST. This feature is for debugger/REPL
support.
```ruby
RubyVM.keep_script_lines = true
RubyVM::keep_script_lines = true
eval("def foo = nil\ndef bar = nil")
pp RubyVM::InstructionSequence.of(method(:foo)).script_lines
```
When Bison reports "memory exhausted", it means the parser stack
depth reached the limit `YYMAXDEPTH` which is defaulted to 10_000,
but not memory allocation failed.
... as per ko1's preference. He is preparing to extend this feature to
ISeq for his new debugger. He prefers "keep" to "save" for this wording.
This API is internal and not included in any released version, so I
change it in advance.
This fixes https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/18038. The provided
reproduction showed that this happens in heredocs with double
interpolation. In this case `DSTR` was getting returned but needs to be
convered to a `EVSTR` which is what is returned by the function. There
may be an additional bug here that we weren't able to produce. It seems
odd that `STR` returns `DSTR` while everything else should return
`EVSTR` since the function is `new_evstr`.

Pin matching for local variables and constants is already supported,
and it is fairly simple to add support for these variable types.
Note that pin matching for method calls is still not supported
without wrapping in parentheses (pin expressions). I think that's
for the best as method calls are far more complex (arguments/blocks).
Implements [Feature #17724]
by merging `rb_ast_body_t#line_count` and `#script_lines`.
Fortunately `line_count == RARRAY_LEN(script_lines)` was always
satisfied. When script_lines is saved, it has an array of lines, and
when not saved, it has a Fixnum that represents the old line_count.
This option makes the parser keep the original source as an array of
the original code lines. This feature exploits the mechanism of
`SCRIPT_LINES__` but records only the specified code that is passed to
RubyVM::AST.of or .parse, instead of recording all parsed program texts.
Ruby uses a recursive algorithm for handling control/meta escapes
in strings (read_escape). However, the equivalent code for regexps
(tokadd_escape) in did not use a recursive algorithm. Due to this,
Handling of control/meta escapes in regexp did not have the same
behavior as in strings, leading to behavior such as the following
returning nil:
```ruby
/\c\xFF/ =~ "\c\xFF"
```
Switch the code for handling \c, \C and \M in literal regexps to
use the same code as for strings (read_escape), to keep behavior
consistent between the two.
Fixes [Bug #14367]
This change allows `def hello = puts "Hello"` without parentheses.
Note that `private def hello = puts "Hello"` does not parse for
technical reason.
