I'm not certain this is correct; we're emitting an error. I think that branch should return `StmtError()` rather than a valid `ContinueStmt` or `BreakStmt`. The prior branch not returning is a bit more reasonable when we have a valid target because the semantics the AST models will still be what the programmer intended. The same is not true for the case where we couldn't find the target; we could break to the nearest loop as a way to recover, but that may end up generating confusing false positives with CFG-based diagnostics, so I think a `RecoveryExpr` makes more sense. WDYT?
