[antlr-interest] Stream processing

I'd like to execute an action as soon as a particular rule matches.  I
don't care if the whole parse fails at a later stage (in the end, the
whole thing will be wrapped in a transaction anyway).

Right now, the generated parser seems to load the whole document into
memory, in some kind of parsed form.  Loading the source document is
not a big issue for me (it's just about 3 MB in size), but the whole
parser data definitely takes too much memory (close to 1 GiB).
