Simplify error recovery; eliminate recovery states
The previous approach to error recovery relied on special error-recovery states in the parse table. For each token T, there was an error recovery state in which the parser looked for *any* token that could follow T. Unfortunately, sometimes the set of tokens that could follow T contained conflicts. For example, in JS, the token '}' can be followed by the open-ended 'template_chars' token, but also by ordinary tokens like 'identifier'. So with the old algorithm, when recovering from an unexpected '}' token, the lexer had no way to distinguish identifiers from template_chars. This commit drops the error recovery states. Instead, when we encounter an unexpected token T, we recover from the error by finding a previous state S in the stack in which T would be valid, popping all of the nodes after S, and wrapping them in an error. This way, the lexer is always invoked in a normal parse state, in which it is looking for a non-conflicting set of tokens. Eliminating the error recovery states also shrinks the lex state machine significantly. Signed-off-by: Rick Winfrey <rewinfrey@github.com>
