Nicholas Nethercote 2903356b2e Overhaul TokenTreeCursor.
- Move it to `rustc_parse`, which is the only crate that uses it. This
  lets us remove all the `pub` markers from it.

- Change `next_ref` and `look_ahead` to `get` and `bump`, which work
  better for the `rustc_parse` uses.

- This requires adding a `TokenStream::get` method, which is simple.

- In `TokenCursor`, we currently duplicate the
  `DelimSpan`/`DelimSpacing`/`Delimiter` from the surrounding
  `TokenTree::Delimited` in the stack. This isn't necessary so long as
  we don't prematurely move past the `Delimited`, and is a small perf
  win on a very hot code path.

- In `parse_token_tree`, we clone the relevant `TokenTree::Delimited`
  instead of constructing an identical one from pieces.

The rustc_ast crate contains those things concerned purely with syntax that is, the AST ("abstract syntax tree"), along with some definitions for tokens and token streams, data structures/traits for mutating ASTs, and shared definitions for other AST-related parts of the compiler (like the lexer and macro-expansion).

For more information about how these things work in rustc, see the rustc dev guide:
