[IronPython] Checking syntax of source code without running it

[Curt Hagenlocher]

Through the hosting API, it's something like this:

engine = IronPython.Hosting.Python.CreateEngine()
source = engine.CreateScriptSourceFromString(text, SourceCodeKind.File)
errors = ErrorListener()
command = source.Compile(errors)
if command is None:
    # compilation failed

Here, ErrorListener is some class that derives
from Microsoft.Scripting.Hosting.ErrorListener and stores the errors.
