lang: require ':' before a for-loop range cursor

The cursor clause now matches the collection form's ': (capture)' — 'for 0..N: (i)' instead of 'for 0..N (i)'. The colon is required when a cursor is present; the no-cursor form 'for 0..N { }' is unchanged. Updated examples/200, the pack-index doc comment, and the spec.
