This commit removes the old parser, the deprecated parser module, the old parser compatibility flags and environment variables and all associated support code and documentation.
These are like keywords but they only work in context; they are not reserved except when there is an exact match.
This would enable things like match statements without reserving `match` (which would be bad for the `re.match()` function and probably lots of other places).

The error message, generated for a non-parenthesized generator expression
in function calls, was still the generic `invalid syntax`, when the generator expression wasn't appearing as the first argument in the call. With this patch, even on input like `f(a, b, c for c in d, e)`, the correct error message gets produced.
This commit fixes SyntaxError locations when the caret is not displayed,
by doing the following:
- `col_number` always gets set to the location of the offending
node/expr. When no caret is to be displayed, this gets achieved
by setting the object holding the error line to None.
- Introduce a new function `_PyPegen_raise_error_known_location`,
which can be called, when an arbitrary `lineno`/`col_offset`
needs to be passed. This function then gets used in the grammar
(through some new macros and inline functions) so that SyntaxError
locations of the new parser match that of the old.
This is for the C generator:
- Disallow rule and variable names starting with `_`
- Rename most local variable names generated by the parser to start with `_`
Exceptions:
- Renaming `p` to `_p` will be a separate PR
- There are still some names that might clash, e.g.
- anything starting with `Py`
- C reserved words (`if` etc.)
- Macros like `EXTRA` and `CHECK`
When parsing a string with an invalid escape, the old parser used to
point to the beginning of the invalid string. This commit changes the new
parser to match that behaviour, since it's currently pointing to the
end of the string (or to be more precise, to the beginning of the next
token).
`ast.parse` and `compile` support a `feature_version` parameter that
tells the parser to parse the input string, as if it were written in
an older Python version.
The `feature_version` is propagated to the tokenizer, which uses it
to handle the three different stages of support for `async` and
`await`. Additionally, it disallows the following at parser level:
- The '@' operator in < 3.5
- Async functions in < 3.5
- Async comprehensions in < 3.6
- Underscores in numeric literals in < 3.6
- Await expression in < 3.5
- Variable annotations in < 3.6
- Async for-loops in < 3.5
- Async with-statements in < 3.5
- F-strings in < 3.6
Closeswe-like-parsers/cpython#124.
This implements full support for # type: <type> comments, # type: ignore <stuff> comments, and the func_type parsing mode for ast.parse() and compile().
Closes https://github.com/we-like-parsers/cpython/issues/95.
(For now, you need to use the master branch of mypy, since another issue unique to 3.9 had to be fixed there, and there's no mypy release yet.)
The only thing missing is `feature_version=N`, which is being tracked in https://github.com/we-like-parsers/cpython/issues/124.
This commit also allows to pass flags to the new parser in all interfaces and fixes a bug in the parser generator that was causing to inline rules with actions, making them disappear.
