Summary:                    Allow not only literals to be default value for
parameters
Description: 
Default functional parameters can be useful.

def SomeAlgo (y : int, f = x => x, g = x => 1){}
SomeAlgo (1, f = x => 2*x);

And maybe allow parameters to use previous parameters.
def f (x : int, y = x + 1, z = y + x + 4);
f (5);
f (5, z = 1);

Addition example:
module Program
{
  Test(_lst = [] : list[string]) : void //E: Incorrect format of parameter
'_lst' default value. You should use 'paramName = <literal>'
  {
  }

  Main() : void
  {
  }
}

In my option emty list also should interpret as literal.
