rules: rewrite

Rewrite the rules file parser for clarity, performance and memory usage
reduction. The previous implementation was quite hard to navigate and
did a lot of unnecessary work and copying.
This implementation keeps along just the state necessary, and doesn't
perform any copying of the file's content (although the entire file is
mmap'ed as before). Hopefully it's also easier to understand, has better
documentation, and better error checking and reporting. We try to
reproduce the previous behavior in every case.

Note: the diff is pretty confusing; it's likely better to look at the
file directly.
