[rules-dev] Drools syntax diagrams - redrawn

The grammar syntax is the same as used in DRL.g but stripped of all the
antsy additions, and simplified.

@Mark: I'm well aware of the limitations of a 1:1 translation of a parser's
grammar into diagrams. I have reduced the splits into separate rules in
DRL.g considerably. But what do you want to hide from the users? The syntax
is the syntax, and there's no sweet-talking around it after you have reduced
all the noise from technical splits.

One thing that might help would be deprecating things like infix or/and.

Some rules can be omitted if they coincide with Java's own rules; just add
an explanation.
