This program can segfault the parser by stack overflow:
```
import ast
code = "f(" + ",".join(['a' for _ in range(100000)]) + ")"
print("Ready!")
ast.parse(code)
```
the reason is that the rule for arguments has a simple recursion when collecting args:
args[expr_ty]:
[...]
| a=named_expression b=[',' c=args { c }] {
[...] }
`GET_INVALID_TARGET` might unexpectedly return `NULL`, which if not
caught will cause a SEGFAULT. Therefore, this commit introduces a new
inline function `RAISE_SYNTAX_ERROR_INVALID_TARGET` that always
checks for `GET_INVALID_TARGET` returning NULL and can be used in
the grammar, replacing the long C ternary operation used till now.
The following error messages get produced:
- `cannot delete ...` for invalid `del` targets
- `... is an illegal 'for' target` for invalid targets in for
statements
- `... is an illegal 'with' target` for invalid targets in
with statements
Additionally, a few `cut`s were added in various places before the
invocation of the `invalid_*` rule, in order to speed things
up.
