It no longer serves a purpose (there's only one parser) and having "new" in any name will eventually look odd. Also, it impinges on a potential sub-namespace, `__new_...__`.
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 the new parser to disallow invalid targets in the
following scenarios:
- Augmented assignments must only accept a single target (Name,
Attribute or Subscript), but no tuples or lists.
- `except` clauses should only accept a single `Name` as a target.

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.
When parsing something like `f(g()=2)`, where the name of a default arg
is not a NAME, but an arbitrary expression, a specialised error message
is emitted.
When parsing things like `def f(*): pass` the old parser used to output `SyntaxError: named arguments must follow bare *`, which the new parser wasn't able to do.
`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

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.
