Description

@pnkfelix

The section on "static items" (formerly entitled "constants") refers to some class of "constant expressions", but we have not defined what these are.

(I think catamorphism has noted this via comments in a few issues I have seen, but I have not seen an actual Issue for this topic; so I am promoting it to a full fledged issue.)

In particular, if we need a subgrammar, or some other sort of static analysis to classify the constant expressions correctly, then we should document it.
