Replace "default" token with "whitespace" and "identifier" tokens, wi…

…th fallback to "unknown" token.

Also, change backticked identifiers like `foo` to be classified as "identifier" rather than "string.

As a bonus, this simplifies getSegments() from 30 lines down to 8.

About tests though, I only updated the 'getSegments()', other tests are currently failing.
If we want to merge this into master I'll update all the tests and documentation.
