Denny + + doc: clean up naming of various Bison files. + The Bison manual's names for various files associated with a Bison + parser has devolved into inconsistency. This patch makes the + naming consistent for the most important files. First, it chooses + "grammar file" over "input file".

Second, it chooses "parser implementation + file" over names like "parser file", "parser source file", "parser + source code file", and "parser output file".
