`syntax.else_if`

Else-if written as elif or elsif.

Area 3, Logic; not declinable; the next step is usually the agent's.

An if goes on with else if.

example

type Count = Int {    min: 0}type Size = Text {}function size(count: Count) -> Size {    if (count > 100) {        return "large"    } elif (count > 10) {        return "medium"    }    return "small"}

error Jadpo writes else if, not elif

--> main.jadpo:10:7

   |10 |     } elif (count > 10) {   |       ^^^^ write `else if`

reason: elif continues an if in Python, elsif in Ruby and elseif in PHP and Lua; Jadpo writes else if.
next: Use else if instead of elif (agent)
