cmd/compile/internal/syntax: faster and simpler source reader

This is one of several changes that were part of a larger rewrite
which I made in early 2019 after switching to the new number literal
syntax implementation. The purpose of the rewrite was to simplify
reading of source code (Unicode character by character) and speed up
the scanner but was never submitted for review due to other priorities.

Part 3 of 3:

This change contains a complete rewrite of source.go, the file that
implements reading individual Unicode characters from the source.
The new implementation is easier to use and has simpler literal
buffer management, resulting in faster scanner and thus parser
performance.

Thew new source.go (internal) API is centered around nextch() which
advances the scanner by one character. The scanner has been adjusted
around nextch() and now consistently does one character look-ahead
(there's no need for complicated ungetr-ing anymore). Only in one
case backtrack is needed (when finding '..' rather than '...') and
that case is now more cleanly solved with the new reset() function.

Measuring line/s parsing peformance by running

go test -run StdLib -fast -skip "syntax/(scanner|source)\.go"

(best of 5 runs on "quiet" MacBook Pro, 3.3GHz Dual-Core i7, 16GB RAM,
OS X 10.15.3) before and after shows consistently 3-5% improvement of
line parsing speed:

old: parsed 1788155 lines (3969 files) in 1.255520307s (1424234 lines/s)
new: parsed 1788155 lines (3969 files) in 1.213197037s (1473919 lines/s)

(scanner.go and parser.go are skipped because this CL changed those files.)
