Parsing support for if expressions. (#2883)

We model `if a then b else` as a prefix operator for parsing precedence purposes. The rule that a statement starting with `if` is never an `if` expression is handled implicitly because the statement parser never invokes the expression parser for a statement starting with `if`.

This exposed a bug in our diagnosis of the whitespace rule for prefix operators, which was incorrectly being applied to non-symbolic operators in some cases, and was producing a bogus second diagnostic in some cases, which is also fixed here.
