Subject: [PATCH] Internals: Make AstConstraintBefore an AstNodeStmt (#6280)
 (#8141)

AstConstraintBefore ('solve x before y') is a constraint item that appears
in constraint bodies alongside its siblings AstConstraintExpr,
AstConstraintUnique and AstConstraintIf, all of which are AstNodeStmt.
Part of #6280.
