Summary     : loose parsing of Lua code, ignoring syntax errors
Description :
	Does loose parsing of Lua code.
	If the code has syntax errors, the parse does not abort; rather,
	some information (e.g. local and global variable scopes) is still inferred.
	This may be useful for code interactively typed into a text editor.

	Characteristics of this code:
	- Parsing does not construct any AST but rather streams tokens.
	It should be memory efficient on large files.
	It is also pretty fast.
	- Very loose parsing.
	Does not abort on broken code.
	Scopes of local variables are still resolved even if the code is
	not syntactically valid.
	- Above characteristics make it suitable for use in a text editor,
	where code may be interactively typed.
	- Loose parsing makes this code somewhat hard to validate its correctness,
	but tests are performed to verify robustness.
	- The parsing code is designed so that parts of it may be reused for other
	purposes in other projects.
