This reverts commit 5cd07648fd.
The separators construct is useful as an optimization. It turns out that
constructing a node for every chunk of whitespace in a document causes a
significant performance regression.

Now, grammars can handle whitespace by making it another ubiquitous
token, like comments.
For now, this has the side effect of whitespace being included in the
tree that precedes it. This was already an issue for other ubiquitous
tokens though, so it needs to be fixed anyway.
The parser is no longer hard-coded to skip whitespace. Tokens
such as newlines, whose characters overlap with the separator
characters, can now be correctly recognized.
