Implements #31 (w/o the foreach part). Previously, these statements would produce a parse error syntax error, unexpected '&', expecting ',' or ')'.
Works as follows:
// Input, either as list() or using the following shorthand form
[&$a, &$b]= $expr;
// Emitted code for PHP 7.3+
list(&$a, &$b)= $expr;
// Emitted code for PHP 7.0, 7.1 and 7.2
null === ($__t= &$expr) ? null : [$a= &$__t[0], $b= &$__t[1]];
