Inheritable Blocks Sections

[damyon]

This is a patch for a feature that is not in the spec, but is proposed here:

mustache/spec#75

It is implemented in at least GRMustache, mustache.php and hogan.js.

See mustache.php docs here: https://github.com/bobthecow/mustache.php/wiki/BLOCKS-pragma (note the caveat about lazy evaluation on that page has been fixed).

The tests in this pull request mostly come from GRMustache, but I couldn't add all his tests, because some require multiple partials.

Note - I don't mind if this is or isn't merged as it looks like you are only accepting things that are already agreed to and in the spec - I just wanted create this pull request in case someone else is looking for this feature.

FYI, GRMustache.swift has a cleaner implementation than its Objective-C ancestor, and passes more tests. I don't know if those extra tests involve the "multiple partials" you refer to.

As stated in mustache/spec#38 (comment), GRMustache.swift implementation and tests have a simple goal: any part of a template can be refactored with partials and inherited partials, without requiring any modification anywhere else (in other templates that depend on it, or in application code).

My comment about not including some tests was only because of the way unit tests are created for this mustache.js. These tests are only ever expecting a single file named blah.partial - which is added to the config as a partial named 'partial' in the test. So tests requiring more than one partial cannot be executed by this test suite.

Is this still supported?
