This PR improves the vscode syntax highlighting.
- Added `comment` keys.
- Added highlighting of invalid numbers such as `0x`, `0b`, `0xa`, etc.
- Restricted highlighting of numeric type literals to common types to
avoid highlighting identifiers such as `i1`.
- Changed the highlighting of named operators (e.g., `as`).
- Added `char` and `str` to type literals.
- Added `const` to modifier keywords.
- Removed `addr` keyword.
- Refactored some rules to use `begin`/`end` to handle line breaks.
- Added highlighting to `choice` values as `enum` values.
- Updated the rules for matching `types`.
- Added highlighting to rhs of `adapt`, `alias`, `choice`, `constraint`,
`impl`, `interface`, `as`, and `impls`.
- Added highlighting to rhs of bindings.
- Added highlighting to function return types.
- Updated the rules for matching `functions`.
- Updated the rules for matching `variables`.
- Added highlighting unidentified words as `variable`.
- Added examples and before/after screenshots.

Introduce a principle that the Carbon language should not encroach on
the
developer's namespace. Satisfy this principle by making `Core` a
keyword.

This is a modifier if it appears before an introducer and a control flow
keyword if it appears before `=>`. Use introducer highlighting if it's
neither.
VSCode's JSON parser no longer accepts comments in at least textmate
grammars, so remove the comments. It's unclear whether VSCode changed
here or whether this hasn't worked since the comments were added.
Clean up the textmate grammar: refactor, add some missing operators and
keywords, classify keywords as introducer / modifier as appropriate, fix
comment grammar to require space after `//`, and generalize recognition
of iN, fN, uN to recognize all such type literals.
Be more cautious in language server -- I was seeing frequent crashes for
`IdentifierName` parse nodes whose token was not actually an identifier,
presumably due to error recovery.
