Macro syn::switch

macro_rules! switch {
    ($i:expr, $submac:ident!( $($args:tt)* ), $($p:pat => $subrule:ident!( $($args2:tt)* ))|* ) => { ... };
}

Pattern-match the result of a parser to select which other parser to run.

• Syntax: switch!(TARGET, PAT1 => THEN1 | PAT2 => THEN2 | ...)
• Output: T, the return type of THEN1 and THEN2 and ...
