This fixes quite a bit of unnecessary diagnostic noise related to
INVALIDtokens, based on the example given by @MaxGraey :In particular, if an
INVALIDtoken is seen and is part of a surrogate pair, the entire pair will be skipped instead of emitting two diagnostics. Also, the tokenizer now implicitly skips over invalid tokens aiding the parser. There's already a diagnostic anyway. Also fixes a bug in the parser emittingnullon empty type parameter lists, which sometimes resulted in reparsing something that already emitted a diagnostic.In the example above, this now results in 2 errors (invalid character, empty type parameter list) instead of spooky 13.
