// ## Token types

// The assignment of fine-grained, information-carrying type objects
// allows the tokenizer to store the information it has about a
// token in a way that is very cheap for the parser to look up.

// All token type variables start with an underscore, to make them
// easy to recognize.

// The `beforeExpr` property is used to disambiguate between regular
// expressions and divisions. It is set on all token types that can
// be followed by an expression (thus, a slash after them would be a
// regular expression).

// The `startsExpr` property is used to determine whether an expression
// may be the “argument” subexpression of a `yield` expression or
// `yield` statement. It is set on all token types that may be at the
// start of a subexpression.

// `isLoop` marks a keyword as starting a loop, which is important
// to know when parsing a label, in order to allow or disallow
// continue jumps to that label.
