The "lexer" state holds the stuff useful to psql to know where commands
start and stop, to process backslash commands, including counting
parenthesis and nested comments and so on... It seems logical to put the
"if" stack there as well, but if you think that it should be somewhere
else, please advise Corey about where to put it.
