ed100bc6f4 LibJS: Implement basic lexing + parsing of StringLiteral
This still includes the double-quote characters (") but at least the
AST comes out right.

425fd3ce51 LibJS: Defer Value construction until a Literal is executed
Remove the need to construct a full Value during parsing. This means
we don't have to worry about plumbing the heap into the parser.

The Literal ASTNode now has a bunch of subclasses that synthesize a
Value on demand.

f3a9eba987 LibJS: Add Javascript lexer and parser
This adds a basic Javascript lexer and parser. It can parse the
currently existing demo programs. More work needs to be done to
turn it into a complete parser than can parse arbitrary JS Code.

The lexer outputs tokens with preceeding whitespace and comments
in the trivia member. This should allow us to generate the exact
source code by concatenating the generated tokens.

The parser is written in a way that it always returns a complete
syntax tree. Error conditions are represented as nodes in the
tree. This simplifies the code and allows it to be used as an
early stage parser, e.g for parsing JS documents in an IDE while
editing the source code.:
