- fix comment parsing around parentheses
- consider parentheses when parsing `/*@__PURE__*/`
- remove all `/*@__PURE__*/` on output
fixes#2638
- improve handling of comments right after `return`
- retain comments after `OutputStream`
- preserve trailing comments
- fix handling of new line before comments

- rename `screw_ie8` to `ie8`
- rename `mangle.except` to `mangle.reserved`
- rename `mangle.properties.ignore_quoted` to `mangle.properties.keep_quoted`
- compact `sourceMap` options
- more stringent verification on input `options`
- toplevel shorthands
- `ie8`
- `keep_fnames`
- `toplevel`
- `warnings`
- support arrays and unquoted string values on CLI
- drop `fromString` from `minify()`
- `minify()` no longer handles any `fs` operations
- unify order of operations for `mangle_properties()` on CLI & API
- `bin/uglifyjs` used to `mangle_properties()` before even `Compressor`
- `minify()` used to `mangle_properties()` after `Compressor` but before `mangle_names()`
- both will now do `Compressor`, `mangle_names()` then `mangle_properties()`
- `options.parse` / `--parse` for parser options beyond `bare_returns`
- add `mangle.properties.builtins` to disable built-in reserved list
- disable with `--mangle-props builtins` on CLI
- `warnings` now off by default
- add `--warn` and `--verbose` on CLI
- drop `--enclose`
- drop `--export-all`
- drop `--reserved-file`
- use `--mangle reserved` instead
- drop `--reserve-domprops`
- enabled by default, disable with `--mangle-props domprops`
- drop `--prefix`

- move these optimisations out from `Compressor` to `OutputStream`
- fixes behaviour inconsistency when running uglified code from global or module levels due to redefinition
- omitting trailing semi-colon in do-while breaks non-browser parser, e.g. uglify-js 1.x
- trailing semi-colon only breaks IE8 if followed by `else` or `while`
- always use braces in do-while body to workaround 2nd case with no size loss in compression
fixes#1568
- remove extra tree scanning phase for `negate_iife`
- `negate_iife` now only deals with the narrowest form, i.e. IIFE sitting directly under `AST_SimpleStatement`
- `booleans`, `conditionals` etc. will now take care the rest via more accurate accounting
- `a(); void b();` => `a(); b();`
fixes#1288closes#1451
catch identifier is mangled correctly for ES5 standards-compliant JS engines by default.
Unconditionally use the ie8 if/do-while workaround whether or not --screw-ie8 is enabled.
To support non-standard ie8 javascript use: uglifyjs --support-ie8
