Optional Token in parser about plex

[goffrie]

It should work to do this:

optionalSemicolon: () {
    => (),
    Semicolon => (),
}
...
manyStatements: ... {
    => ...
    manyStatements[sts] statement[st] optionalSemicolon => ...
}

Here's an example for demo.rs: https://gist.github.com/goffrie/2dacbe5aefe7e4ea83d4b4da876ef39e

If you're asking for a convenient shorthand (like Semicolon? instead of adding a new nonterminal), then that's a valid feature request.

Sorry, didn't realize that I could do that.

The shorthand would be awesome tho!

Correct me if i'm wrong, but I believe this causes a shift-reduce conflict?
