looks like lalrpop builds and runs fine with itertools 0.9 as well as
0.8.  i've relaxed its build-dependencies for itertools in 0.17.2-5.

At some point, we should move to the latest lalrpop (0.19.1), but that
is going to require at least one round-trip through NEW (lalrpop-util
has a new "lexer" feature), so for now i'm going to just try to get the
existing toolchain to migrate to testing, so that the existing sequoia
packages (and anything else that depends on lalrpop 0.17) can build and
migrate.
