Goal is to increase type safety, though more work needs to be done (see
added TODOs).
Note that, after this change, check handlers corresponding to deleted
parse node kinds will no longer compile.

This replaces the use of `VarStorage` in this case.
Add an `UnboundFieldType` type as the type of a field, in cases where
it's referenced without an accompanying object.
Add a `BindName` node to describe the name binding performed for both
variables and fields so that we can handle them more uniformly.
This removes a (very) hot branch in the lexer where we need to special
case when a token is the first token and can't look at its previous
token. It also seems like a generally nice change to the structure of
both the token buffer and parse tree as there are now bracketing
elements for both ends and we should be able to avoid similar branching
in the future.
Mostly mechanical updates to the lexer and parser code to handle this,
but also needed to special case the location information in the
autoupdate code. And then the usual large body of auto-updated tests.
No benchmark data for this change alone as in isolation and in the
current lexer structure it doesn't make a big difference. But this
branch was particularly difficult to handle when trying to update the
whitespace skipping code to be faster, and so I think it is worth
systematically avoiding the special case here.
Continuing along with #3070. Note this is just a file rename, with BUILD
edits; every file previously in semantics/ should show as moved (except
maybe BUILDs, which split).
