Store leading a trailing "trivia" around a token, such as whitespace,
comments, doc comments, and escaping backticks. These are syntactically
important for preserving formatting when printing ASTs but don't
semantically affect the program.
Tokens take all trailing trivia up to, but not including, the next
newline. This is important to maintain checks that statements without
semicolon separators start on a new line, among other things.
Trivia are now data attached to the ends of tokens, not tokens
themselves.
Create a new Syntax sublibrary for upcoming immutable, persistent,
thread-safe ASTs, which will contain only the syntactic information
about source structure, as well as for generating new source code, and
structural editing. Proactively move swift::Token into there.
Since this patch is getting a bit large, a token fuzzer which checks
for round-trip equivlence with the workflow:
fuzzer => token stream => file1
=> Lexer => token stream => file 2 => diff(file1, file2)
Will arrive in a subsequent commit.
This patch does not change the grammar.
Swift parser splits tokens in few cases, but it swift::tokenize(...) does not know
about that. In order to reconstruct token stream as it was seen by the parser,
we need to collect the tokens it decided to split and use this information
in swift::tokenize(...).
