_PI is defined with sym_AddEqu during sym_Init, but that's broken for some reason.

Predefined constants do not work, like _PI about rgbds HOT 1 CLOSED

In addition, for purposes of comparison, constants like these are treated as undefined, but the opposite case still gets parsed. This is in contrast to real undefined constants, for which the opposite use case is not parsed.

Contrived example:

sanky@warata:~/romhacking/rgbds_$ cat test.asm
SECTION "rst00",HOME[0]
IF !DEF(WHATEVER)
    db "_WHATEVER IS NOT DEFINED\n"
ENDC

IF DEF(WHATEVER)
    stop
    db "_WHATEVER IS DEFINED\n"
ENDC
sanky@warata:~/romhacking/rgbds_$ ./rgbasm -o test_ test.asm
sanky@warata:~/romhacking/rgbds_$ cat test_
RGB2���ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½_WHATEVER IS NOT DEFINED



sanky@warata:~/romhacking/rgbds_$ gedit test.asm
sanky@warata:~/romhacking/rgbds_$ cat test.asm
SECTION "rst00",HOME[0]
IF !DEF(_Z80)
    db "_Z80 IS NOT DEFINED\n"
ENDC

IF DEF(_Z80)
    db "_Z80 IS DEFINED\n"
ENDC
sanky@warata:~/romhacking/rgbds_$ ./rgbasm -o test_ test.asm
sanky@warata:~/romhacking/rgbds_$ cat test_
RGB2���ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½_Z80 IS NOT DEFINED



sanky@warata:~/romhacking/rgbds_$ gedit test.asm
sanky@warata:~/romhacking/rgbds_$ cat test.asm
SECTION "rst00",HOME[0]
IF !DEF(_Z80)
    db "_Z80 IS NOT DEFINED\n"
ENDC

IF DEF(_Z80)
    stop
    db "_Z80 IS DEFINED\n"
ENDC
sanky@warata:~/romhacking/rgbds_$ ./rgbasm -o test_ test.asm
ERROR:  test.asm(7) :
