* Pre: Expose more in edn. * Pre: Make it easier to work with ValueAndSpan. with_spans() is a temporary hack, needed only because I don't care to parse the bootstrap assertions from text right now. * Part 1a: Add `value_and_span` for parsing nested `edn::ValueAndSpan` instances. I wasn't able to abstract over `edn::Value` and `edn::ValueAndSpan`; there are multiple obstacles. I chose to roll with `edn::ValueAndSpan` since it exposes the additional span information that we will want to form good error messages in the future. * Part 1b: Add keyword_map() parsing an `edn::Value::Vector` into an `edn::Value::map`. * Part 1c: Add `Log`/`.log(...)` for logging parser progress. This is a terrible hack, but it sure helps to debug complicated nested parsers. I don't even know what a principled approach would look like; since our parser combinators are so frequently expressed in code, it's hard to imagine a data-driven interpreter that can help debug things. * Part 2: Use `value_and_span` apparatus in tx-parser/. I break an abstraction boundary by returning a value column `edn::ValueAndSpan` rather than just an `edn::Value`. That is, the transaction processor shouldn't care where the `edn::Value` it is processing arose -- even we care to track that information we should bake it into the `Entity` type. We do this because we need to dynamically parse the value column to support nested maps, and parsing requires a full `edn::ValueAndSpan`. Alternately, we could cheat and fake the spans when parsing nested maps, but that's potentially expensive. * Part 3: Use `value_and_span` apparatus in query-parser/. * Part 4: Use `value_and_span` apparatus in root crate. * Review comment: Make Span and SpanPosition Copy. * Review comment: nits. * Review comment: Make `or` be `or_exactly`. I baked the eof checking directly into the parser, rather than using the skip and eof parsers. I also took the time to restore some tests that were mistakenly commented out. * Review comment: Extract and use def_matches_* macros. * Review comment: .map() as late as possible. |

This crate implements a basic EDN parser for Project Mentat.
It was originally developed as a separate project called barnardsstar.
