list of terminals and non-terminals that make up the production.
Don't name anything with double-underscores; those are reserved for
the generator. Don't add '$' either, as it is reserved to mean
end-of-stream. Use an empty list to indicate nullability, that is:
('O', []),
means that O can be matched with nothing.
Note that this is implemented in the dumbest way possible, in order to be
the most understandable it can be. I built this to learn, and I want to
make sure I can keep learning with it.

string describing what to do:
- 'shift': The second element of the tuple is the state
number. Consume the input and push that state onto the stack.
- 'reduce': The second element is the name of the non-terminal being
reduced, and the third element is the number of states to remove
from the stack. Don't consume the input; just remove the specified
number of things from the stack, and then consult the table again,
this time using the new top-of-stack as the current state and the
name of the non-terminal to find out what to do.
- 'goto': The second element is the state number to push onto the
stack. In the literature, these entries are treated distinctly from
the actions, but we mix them here because they never overlap with the
other actions. (These are always associated with non-terminals, and
the other actions are always associated with terminals.)
