This is one of several changes that were part of a larger rewrite
which I made in early 2019 after switching to the new number literal
syntax implementation. The purpose of the rewrite was to simplify
reading of source code (Unicode character by character) and speed up
the scanner but was never submitted for review due to other priorities.
Part 2 of 3:
This change contains improvements to the scanner error messages:
- Use "rune literal" rather than "character literal" to match the
spec nomenclature.
- Shorter, more to the point error messages.
(For instance, "more than one character in rune literal" rather
than "invalid character literal (more than one character)", etc.)
