R=go1.11 In order to collect comments in the AST and for error testing purposes, the scanner needs to not only recognize and skip comments, but also be able to report them if so desired. This change adds a mode flag to the scanner's init function which controls the scanner behavior around comments. In the common case where comments are not needed, there must be no significant overhead. Thus, comments are reported via a handler upcall rather than being returned as a _Comment token (which the parser would have to filter out with every scanner.next() call). Because the handlers for error messages, directives, and comments all look the same (they take a position and text), and because directives look like comments, and errors never start with a '/', this change simplifies the scanner's init call to only take one (error) handler instead of 2 or 3 different handlers with identical signature. It is trivial in the handler to determine if we have an error, directive, or general comment. Finally, because directives are comments, when reporting directives the full comment text is returned now rather than just the directive text. This simplifies the implementation and makes the scanner API more regular. Furthermore, it provides important information about the comment style used by a directive, which may matter eventually when we fully implement /*line file:line:col*/ directives.
