This will allow to generate error messages that point to the right line if
there is something wrong or not supported in a class property declaration.

SystemVerilog allows unpacked array dimensions on non-ANSI style task and
function ports.
To support this refactor pform_make_task_ports() to accept a of
pform_port_t, which in addition to the identifier name also allows to
specify per port unpacked dimensions.

SystemVerilog allows `parameter` and `localparam` to declare constants
within a class scope. E.g.
```SystemVerilog
class C;
localparam A = 10;
endclass
```
In this context both declare a local parameter that can not be overwritten.
Supporting this can be achieved for the most part by adding a parser
sub-rule in class declaration rule. In addition some extra support code is
needed to mark the parameter as non-overridable.

When creating an enum type it must be added to the scope where it is
declared so it can later be elaborated and the enum and its names can be
referenced in expressions.
In addition the names of the enum must be added to the lexor scope so that
name collisions are detected and can be reported as errors.
This is done with pform_put_enum_type_in_scope() function.
At the moment the function is called from two different places
* When adding a typedef of a enum type
* When creating a signal of a enum type
In addition the enum_type_t is added to a class scope `enum_sets` when
declaring a enum property in a class. But this only makes sure that the
enum gets elaborated, its names are not added to the lexor scope.
This works fine for the most part, but breaks for a few corner cases.
E.g. it is possible to declare a enum type as part of the subtype of
another packed type such as structs or packed arrays. E.g.
```
struct packed {
enum {
A
} e;
} s;
```
This is not covered by either of the cases above and neither do the names
of the enum get added to the lexor scope, nor is the enum type elaborated.
Another corner case that is currently not working is declaring a class
property where the type is a typedef of a enum that is declared outside of
the class. In this case the enum is elaborated again inside the class
scope. E.g. the below is supposed to work, but fails with an already
declared symbol error.
```
typedef enum {
A
} e_t;
class C;
typedef enum {
A
} e1;
e_t e2;
endclass
```
In addition since for enums declared in classes they are only added to
`enum_sets`, but names are not added to the lexor scope, it is possible to
declare a different symbol in the class scope with the same name.
E.g. the following elaborates fine
```
class C;
enum {
A
} e;
typedef int A;
endclass
```
To fix this call pform_put_enum_type_in_scope() when the enum_type_t is
created in the parser. This makes sure that it is handled the same
regardless where the type is declared or used.

This.new is not allowed.
super.new beyond the first statement is not allowed.
And while I'm at it, clean up the use of "@" and "#" in
the code as tokens for this and super.
Static properties are like variables in a named scope.
Detect these variables during elaboration so that the
code generator just sees them as variables.
Class methods belong in a class scope, not the containing module.
So create a lexical scope that carries tasks and functions and
create a PClass to represent classes.
