Support unchecked blocks

This patch supports the syntax

    unchecked {
      ...
    }

    to disable purity checking within a block. Presumably it will only be
    used within a declared "pure fn". However, there is no checking that it
    doesn't occur elsewhere, and it would be harmless for it to do so.

    I went with Lindsey's suggestion for the syntax, but it's subject to
    change.

    This allows you to write code that uses predicates that call arbitrary
    Rust functions, but you must declare your intentions by wrapping it in
    an unchecked { ... } block. The test case run-pass/unchecked-predicates.rs
    demonstrates how to do that.
