libyaml refuses to skip a tab in the inter-token whitespace whenever a
simple key is allowed, so a tab used as valid separation (after a '-',
'?', or ':' indicator, or before a flow collection) is reported as a
character that cannot start a token. But a tab is legal in-line
separation; it is only illegal as indentation.
The scanner now skips tabs in scan_to_next_token and records in
tabbedSeparation whether one preceded the pending token. A block entry,
an explicit key, or an implicit mapping key promoted by ':' is rejected
when reached through a tab (there the tab would be indentation), while a
scalar value or a flow collection is accepted. Tab-indented keys and
'-\t-' nested entries still reject.
Surpasses libyaml on 6BCT, 6CA3, A2M4, DK95/00, Q5MG, Y79Y/010.
Port score 299 -> 305.
libyaml makes every ':' in a flow collection a value indicator, so it
mis-scans ':x', 'http://foo.com', '::vector', and 'omitted value:,', and
drops the value after an adjacent quoted or collection key. Per the spec a
':' only ends a node when followed by whitespace, end of input, or a flow
indicator, except an adjacent ':' after a JSON key (a quoted flow scalar
or a flow collection used as the key).
Gate the ':' value-indicator dispatch on that rule, tracking on the
pending simple key whether it is a JSON node (set for quoted flow scalars
and flow-collection starts). End the plain scalar at a ':' before a flow
indicator instead of rejecting it as unexpected.
Surpasses libyaml on 4ABK, 58MP, 5T43, DBG4, FRK4, HM87/00, with 9MMW
(mixing adjacent and separated keys) still correct. Port score 292 -> 298.
Stage 2 of the faithful libyaml scanner port. Translates yaml_parser_save_simple_key, yaml_parser_remove_simple_key, yaml_parser_stale_simple_keys, and the flow-level push/pop (yaml_parser_increase_flow_level / decrease) onto a new PureYAML.Parsing.LibYAML.Scanner aggregate that embeds the indent engine. The simple-key mechanism is what lets a quoted scalar, a nested collection, or a property-carrying node become a mapping key when a ':' follows, and is required exactly at the block indent. Modelled faithfully: a potential key goes stale once it spans a line break or exceeds 1024 characters, and a required key that is removed or goes stale is the 'could not find expected colon' error. Unit-tested for the required/not-required, removal-error, staleness, and flow-level cases. No public behavior changed yet.
