Fix output for arrays containing undefined values.

1b6bcca7 was a first attempt at this. That commit made Uglify stop replacing
holes with undefined, but instead it started replacing undefined with
holes. This is slightly problematic, because there is a difference between a
hole and an undefined value. More problematically, it changed [1,undefined] to
[1,] which generally doesn't even parse as a hole (just as a trailing comma), so
it didn't even preserve the length of the array!

Instead, parse holes as their own special AST node which prints invisibly.
