This is a trial balloon to test syntax that allows to optionally replace braces with indentation.
It implements #2491.

For the moment this is for experimentation only, no decision has been made to merge this.

Several uses of `with` in expressions, templates and
package definitions.
Also, add a mode to `Source.column` that flags
tab characters as -1 results.
Check that // end <ident> comments line up with preceding
trees.
if (follow.isEmpty || ".;,".contains(follow.head)) str else ""
}
else ""

Does this add semantic meaning to comments?

Not really, since you only get a warning if there's misalignment.

If a line contains several with's and ends in =>, pick the last
with as the indentation point.
This got confused because we use case outside patterns.
Fixed by having the parser tell the scanner when a pattern
starts and ends.

Note: The end comment syntax for enums does not work yet.
