Under UseLambdaSyntax, anonymous functions became lambdas only when an
expression body was possible; statement-bodied ones kept C# 2 delegate
syntax. Now every anonymous function whose parameter shape a lambda can
express uses lambda syntax; delegate syntax remains for ref/out/in and
params parameters and for pre-C# 3 language profiles.
Two latent issues surfaced by the wider lambda coverage: DeclareVariables
assumed an insertion point directly under a LambdaExpression is an
expression body it must convert to a block, which block-bodied lambdas
now violate; and anonymous methods declared without a parameter list
carry compiler-generated parameter names like '<p0>' that are not valid
identifiers, so the lambda's mandatory parameter list regenerates such
names from the parameter type: (object obj, EventArgs e) => ...
A side effect visible in fixtures: an explicit parameter list can make
a delegate-creation cast redundant that bare 'delegate' syntax needed
for overload resolution, e.g. new Thread((ThreadStart)delegate { })
becomes new Thread(() => { }).
