spec: permit "for range x" (no index variables)
This is a fully backward-compatible language change. There are not a lot of cases in the std library, but there are some. Arguably this makes the syntax a bit more regular - any trailing index variable that is _ can be left away, and there's some analogy to type switches where the temporary can be left away. Implementation-wise the change should be trivial as it can be done completely syntactically. For instance, the respective change in go/parser is a dozen lines (see https://golang.org/cl/112970044 ). Fixes #6102. LGTM=iant, r, rsc R=r, rsc, iant, ken CC=golang-codereviews https://golang.org/cl/104680043
