Fix for SF bug [ #471928 ] global made w/nested list comprehensions

The symbol table pass didn't have an explicit case for the list_iter
node which is used only for a nested list comprehension.  As a result,
the target of the list comprehension was treated as a use instead of
an assignment.  Fix is to add a case to symtable_node() to handle
list_iter.

Also, rework and document a couple of the subtler implementation
issues in the symbol table pass.  The symtable_node() switch statement
depends on falling through the last several cases, in order to handle
some of the more complicated nodes like atom.  Add a comment
explaining the behavior before the first fall through case.  Add a
comment /* fall through */ at the end of case so that it is explicitly
marked as such.

Move the for_stmt case out of the fall through logic, which simplifies
both for_stmt and default.  (The default used the local variable start
to skip the first three nodes of a for_stmt when it fell through.)

Rename the flag argument to symtable_assign() to def_flag and add a
comment explaining its use:

   The third argument to symatble_assign() is a flag to be passed to
   symtable_add_def() if it is eventually called.  The flag is useful
   to specify the particular type of assignment that should be
   recorded, e.g. an assignment caused by import.
