Skript: Various issues with new parser

[RoyCurtis]

I realize there are multiple issues on this and the title is vague, however I wasn't sure on how to report my experience with the new parser. Maybe it'd help if I recorded them in my own issue, such as this one.

These are the results of attempting to load and use our collection of skripts for our Survival server, with the new Skript parser. I do not use any Skript addons.

If you need a list of features this Skript collection provides, for testing purposes, see this checklist.

After adding 1.11 blocks and entities the _aliases-english.sk_:

... acacia door = 431 splash potion = 438 lingering potion = 441 dark oak boat = 448
most materials are recognized, but console/log reports:
[07:47:24] [Server thread/WARN]: [Skript] There are no aliases defined for the following ids: 438, 441

New parser has probably nothing to do with aliases weirdness. It has always been quite... interesting code.

@RoyCurtis I have invited you as collaborator. You should see experimental release using old parser (from branch oldparser) there. For everyone else, it can be found on #random at Skript Discord.

[RoyCurtis]

Thanks! I appreciate the invite. I can give the old parser a try for 1.11 testing.

[RoyCurtis]

With the old parser, all the scripts appear to load fine without error. But I need to make a new checklist of 1.11 features and make sure they all work. If any bugs are found, I will create new issues.

If curious, here is the debug log: https://gist.github.com/RoyCurtis/cb04289d2005dbfd72cfad3e11388a45

(New) old parser in dev22c works fine. All scripts load without error, and execute correctly.

On startup, I still get:
[07:47:24] [Server thread/WARN]: [Skript] There are no aliases defined for the following ids: 438, 441
These are defined in _aliases-english.sk_. But small price to pay for working scripts. Yay!

[melinstagibson]

Can i use dev22c with the new parser? I dont like sticking to outdated
things now that i squashed all bugs besides the annoying "WARNS"

[bensku]

I will build and release new parser version after squashing few more bugs. In meantime, you can compile it yourself quite easily.
