// This file supports semantic highlighting: categorizing tokens in the file so
// that the editor can color/style them differently.
// This is particularly valuable for C++: its complex and context-dependent
// grammar is a challenge for simple syntax-highlighting techniques.
//
// Semantic highlightings are calculated for an AST by visiting every AST node
// and classifying nodes that are interesting to highlight (variables/function
// calls etc.).
