Allow referencing cursors as record variables in PSQL
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CORE-4403
                 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-4403
             Project: Firebird Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Engine
            Reporter: Dmitry Yemanov
            Priority: Minor


Either explicit (DECLARE AS CURSOR) or implicit (FOR SELECT) PSQL cursors could 
make their current record available via the cursor name similar to OLD/NEW 
trigger contexts, thus making the INTO clause optional. In FOR SELECT loops, it 
requires AS CURSOR clause to be specified. For example:

for
  select rdb$relation_id as id, rdb$relation_name as name
  from rdb$relations
  where rdb$view_blr is null
  as cursor tables
do begin
  out_id = tables.id;
  out_name = tables.name;
  suspend;
end

To avoid ambiguities, the colon prefix could be used.
