/**
 * A parser for the string representation of {@link StatementDescriptor}s.

 * <ul>
 * <li>QUERY (read)</li>
 * <li>QUERY-COUNT (read)</li>
 * <li>ADD (write)</li>
 * <li>UPDATE (write)</li>
 * <li>REPLACE (write)</li>
 * <li>REMOVE (write)</li>
 * </ul>
 * 
 * <p><strong>Grammar:</strong></p>
 * <pre>
 * statementDesc := statementType category setList suffix
 * statementType := 'QUERY' | 'QUERY-COUNT' |
 *                  'ADD' | 'REPLACE' | 'UPDATE' |
 *                  'REMOVE'
 * category      := string
 * setList       := 'SET' setValues | \empty
 * setValues     := valuePair valueList
 * valuePair     := term '=' term
 * valueList     := ',' setValues | \empty
 * suffix        := 'WHERE' where |
 *                  'SORT' sortCond |
 *                  'LIMIT' term | \empty

 * compExp       := term compExpRHS
 * term          := freeParam | literal
 * freeParam     := '?s' | '?i' | '?l' | '?s[' | '?b'
 * literal       := sQuote string sQuote | int | long | boolean
 * sQuote        := \'

 *                  '&lt;' term | '&gt;' term

 *
 * This implements the following logic precedence rules (in this order of
 * precedence):
 * 
 * <ol>
 *   <li>NOT</li>
 *   <li>AND</li>
 *   <li>OR</li>
 * </ol>
 * 
 * NOTE: Comparison expressions have equal precedence.
