The pg command of org.transscript.Tool will generate a parser and lexer for a Tosca meta-parser for the target language. @mmatsa suggests that it would be good to be able to generate a regular parser that will generate Tosca terms as well.

Also, the parser generation only supports Java. It would nice to be able to generate a parser that's implemented in C++.

Roughed-in initial changes for issue #46.
6aa3b17 
1. Added cpp|java options to org.transscript.Tool to specify the target parser implementation language for the pg command, and regular|meta options to select whether to generate a regular parser or a meta parser.  The defaults are java and meta.

2. Sketched out part of the changes needed in genparser.tsc to select whether to generate a Java or C++ parser.  The C++ case simply produces comments in the 'header' and 'members' sections of the generated g4 file indicating there's no implementation yet.
