Jon Meow 49013ae1cc Reject invalid string literal whitespace on unescape (#793)
This is based on discussion on #732: that we should probably parse the invalid whitespace, then reject it as part of string validation, rather than having different parses. I worry the question of "how is this parsed" may lead to subtly unexpected results if we aren't consistent, so I'm switching the logic from the lexer to the unescape library (and also adjusting the list of rejected whitespace).

Jon MeowandGeoff Romer 250ce4ab00 Add string parsing and a print builtin (#721)
It was in my mind to add String in order to support libraries in `package`.  `print` is added in order to have a String go to stdout. I've tried to do `print` in a way that won't be too hard to add other printable types, but it's probably also somewhat optional here -- that is, if desired, I could remove it. But it was a lot easier to doublecheck `\n` behavior with it, and I suspect it'll be helpful in other tests if it supports more value types.

On the side, this also fixes dereferencing in Pattern/Expression Print() calls, which I was noticing printing pointers instead of values. This may be another argument for moving away from passing pointers, since this seems to be a difficult-to-catch error.
