IntelliJ will support Groovy 3 but with own parser. 

- using the parser provided by Groovy library restricts support to that library 
version;
- compiler parsers are usually non-recoverable, but in IntelliJ we want to 
provide ability to work with broken code as much as possible, so we have own 
parsers for (almost) each language.
