Parenthesize break values containing leading label
The AST pretty printer previously produced invalid syntax in the case of `break` expressions with a value that begins with a loop or block label.
```rust
macro_rules! expr {
($e:expr) => {
$e
};
}
fn main() {
loop {
break expr!('a: loop { break 'a 1; } + 1);
};
}
```
`rustc -Zunpretty=expanded main.rs `:
```console
#![feature(prelude_import)]
#![no_std]
#[prelude_import]
use ::std::prelude::rust_2015::*;
#[macro_use]
extern crate std;
macro_rules! expr { ($e:expr) => { $e }; }
fn main() { loop { break 'a: loop { break 'a 1; } + 1; }; }
```
The expanded code is not valid Rust syntax. Printing invalid syntax is bad because it blocks `cargo expand` from being able to format the output as Rust syntax using rustfmt.
```console
error: parentheses are required around this expression to avoid confusion with a labeled break expression
--> <anon>:9:26
|
9 | fn main() { loop { break 'a: loop { break 'a 1; } + 1; }; }
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
help: wrap the expression in parentheses
|
9 | fn main() { loop { break ('a: loop { break 'a 1; }) + 1; }; }
| + +
```
This PR updates the AST pretty-printer to insert parentheses around the value of a `break` expression as required to avoid this edge case.

The rustc_ast crate contains those things concerned purely with syntax
– that is, the AST ("abstract syntax tree"), along with some definitions for tokens and token streams, data structures/traits for mutating ASTs, and shared definitions for other AST-related parts of the compiler (like the lexer and macro-expansion).
For more information about how these things work in rustc, see the rustc dev guide:
