* Add to the peg generator a new directive ('&&') that allows to expect
a token and hard fail the parsing if the token is not found. This
allows to quickly emmit syntax errors for missing tokens.
* Use the new grammar element to hard-fail if the ':' is missing before
suites.
Left-recursive rules need to check for errors explicitly, since
even if the rule returns NULL, the parsing might continue and lead
to long-distance failures.

The hard part was making all the tests pass; there are some subtle issues here, because apparently the future import wasn't tested very thoroughly in previous Python versions.
For example, `inspect.signature()` returned type objects normally (except for forward references), but strings with the future import. We changed it to try and return type objects by calling `typing.get_type_hints()`, but fall back on returning strings if that function fails (which it may do if there are future references in the annotations that require passing in a specific namespace to resolve).
`GET_INVALID_TARGET` might unexpectedly return `NULL`, which if not
caught will cause a SEGFAULT. Therefore, this commit introduces a new
inline function `RAISE_SYNTAX_ERROR_INVALID_TARGET` that always
checks for `GET_INVALID_TARGET` returning NULL and can be used in
the grammar, replacing the long C ternary operation used till now.
The following error messages get produced:
- `cannot delete ...` for invalid `del` targets
- `... is an illegal 'for' target` for invalid targets in for
statements
- `... is an illegal 'with' target` for invalid targets in
with statements
Additionally, a few `cut`s were added in various places before the
invocation of the `invalid_*` rule, in order to speed things
up.

This commit removes the old parser, the deprecated parser module, the old parser compatibility flags and environment variables and all associated support code and documentation.
A line with only a line continuation character should be considered
a blank line at tokenizer level so that only a single NEWLINE token
gets emitted. The old parser was working around the issue, but the
new parser threw a `SyntaxError` for valid input. For example,
an empty line following a line continuation character was interpreted
as a `SyntaxError`.

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.

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.
