parser: extract function that tests if next token may start new term

Future patches will separate primary expression and prefix operator actions.
This function will be used to resolve ambiguity of them.

This is a step to remove the old-style revexpr parser. We need both ":" and
":y" operators for backward compatibility.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
