support <:O>: if a label is not found, continue execution after the go-to statement
* this is a SciTECO extension - it's not in TECO-11
* Allows for select-case-like constructs with default-clauses as in
:Os.^EQa$
!* default *!
!s.foo!
!* ... *!
!s.bar!
!* ... *!
* Consistent with nOlabel0,label1,...$ if <n> is out of range.
Unfortunately this form of computed goto is not applicable when
"selecting" by strings or non-consecutive integers.
* In order to continue after the <:O> statement, we must keep the
program counter along with the label we were looking for.
At the end of the macro, the PC is restored instead of throwing
an error.
* Since that would be very inefficient in loops - where potentially
all iterations would result in rescanning till the end of the
macro - we now store a completed-flag in the goto table.
If it is set while trying to :O to an unknown label, we can
just continue execution.
