Commit 3da8527 introduced repeating the patch phase for operator overloading, but also reruns all patchers any time an operator overload is patched.
This can break patchers that don't expect to be re-run over the statement multiple times.
This patch set splits patching into two phases. First phase only patchers that don't require multiple passes are run. Second phase only patchers that require multiple passes are run.
As a side effect, it also allows any ordering between other patchers and operator overloads, where as previously if a patcher changed a nodes type it would have to be supplied as an option before the operator.
Passes all tests.
