Damien George 71019ae4f5 py/grammar: Group no-compile grammar rules together to shrink tables.
Grammar rules have 2 variants: ones that are attached to a specific
compile function which is called to compile that grammar node, and ones
that don't have a compile function and are instead just inspected to see
what form they take.

In the compiler there is a table of all grammar rules, with each entry
having a pointer to the associated compile function.  Those rules with no
compile function have a null pointer.  There are 120 such rules, so that's
120 words of essentially wasted code space.

By grouping together the compile vs no-compile rules we can put all the
no-compile rules at the end of the list of rules, and then we don't need
to store the null pointers.  We just have a truncated table and it's
guaranteed that when indexing this table we only index the first half,
the half with populated pointers.

This patch implements such a grouping by having a specific macro for the
compile vs no-compile grammar rules (DEF_RULE vs DEF_RULE_NC).  It saves
around 460 bytes of code on 32-bit archs.
