const is too verbose! Make it default when assignment is done by :=

Feature Request

I think good language has a good default syntax.

In es6 and above, more than 95% of the variables is declared as const.
Then, let's make it default!

My Feature request
Instead of this

const id = 123;

This is far better! concise and shorter!

id := 123;

I know that this one declaration seems not so much difference.

But, you con easily find the following case!

const id = 123;
const str = 'ABC'
const time = new Date();
const reg = /abc/;
const ....

Let's do it just like this.

id := 123;
str := 'ABC'
time := new Date();
reg := /abc/;
....

Done.
