What is this?

TO add support for annotations. This will require:

New SymbolType as the entering symbol (if one hasn't been declared for it yet)
New Statement-type (a sub-type of it), call it Annotation and probably place it in data.d (just ask me)
Some stack push-pop mechanism
- Push for when we return from parseAnnotation() we must place the `Annotation on the top of the stack
- Certain entities like parseStruct() can check if hasAnnotationsOnStack() and if so popAnnotation(), check what it contains and if it is fine then continue (attach that info to the struct for example)

Todo

Lexer changes
Parser changes
Documentation
- I believe somewhere in docs_src/ (in the docs repo) there is a blank file for annotations. It is there where docs should be placed.
