      Description

        We did a row of smaller changes to adlc to improve its usability, e.g.

        - Make adlc more stable, especially if parsing faulty .ad files.
        - In some cases raise syntax errors instead of asserting.
        - Write more comments into generated files and beautify format.
        - Make calls to node->format() more stable.
        - Clean up adlc code: warnings, dead code etc.

        Notice that all these changes shouldn't affect the generated code in any way!

        I collected all these and put them into this webrev:

         http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~goetz/webrevs/webrev-adlc_usability/

        We would like to contribute this to the openJDK. Could somebody
        please review the change and push it if it seems useful to you?

        Thanks a lot,
          Goetz.
