S_scan_ident: Add some comments, white space, braces
This function is complicated, without enough documentation for me to
understand the subtleties; I only studied it enough to change things I
needed to, or which became obvious to me in the process. Other things
remain undocumented by this commit.
Some of the white space gives improper indentation which will fit a
future commit.
This commit also remove redundant parentheses in one statement

That this had to be true was not obvious to me without studying closely
the code before it. Adding an assertion will result in others deciding
they don't have to figure it out.

S_scan_ident: Remove unnecessary complexity
This check that the code just below won't look beyond the end of the
buffer, is rendered redundant by the "_safe" macro which does the
check itself.

S_parse_ident: Add ability to start parse in middle
S_scan_ident would like to call this function, already having looked at
the first character of an identifier, and deciding it is legal. It
wants this function to finish the scan.
This commit adds a flag to S_parse_ident to accommodate this.

S_scan_ident: Char in middle needt not be IDStart
This fixes a bug in this function, in which it required the second
character in an identifier to be IDStart, instead of IDCont. This
hasn't been caught because most identifiers are ASCII, and generally for
the purposes of this function in the ASCII range, all \w characters can
be IDStart.

-----------
S_scan_ident: Add a check-only option
There is a bug here in which this function is called from S_intuit_more
just to see if there is an identifier in the string it is looking at.
But that call can have "subtle implications on parsing" (according to
the long-standing comments in it). We need a way to call scan_ident
without side-effects.
This commit adds that capability. The next will use it.

S_intuit_more: Call scan_ident in check-only mode
This fixes the bug that examining the parse buffer had side-effects. I
don't know what the implications of that were.
