The change is this (see Trac #2798).  Instead of writing

  mdo { a <- getChar
      ; b <- f c
      ; c <- g b
      ; putChar c
      ; return b }

you would write

  do { a <- getChar
     ; rec { b <- f c
           ; c <- g b }
     ; putChar c
     ; return b }

That is, 
  * 'mdo' is eliminated 
  * 'rec' is added, which groups a bunch of statements
    into a single recursive statement

This 'rec' thing is already present for the arrow notation, so it  
makes the two more uniform.  Moreover, 'rec' lets you say more
precisely where the recursion is (if you want to), whereas 'mdo' just
says "there's recursion here somewhere".  Lastly, all this works with
rebindable syntax (which mdo does not).

Currently 'mdo' is enabled by -XRecursiveDo.  So we now deprecate this
flag, with another flag -XDoRec to enable the 'rec' keyword.

Implementation notes:
  * Some changes in Lexer.x
  * All uses of RecStmt now use record syntax

I'm still not really happy with the "rec_ids" and "later_ids" in the
RecStmt constructor, but I don't dare change it without consulting Ross
about the consequences for arrow syntax.
