In order to store a function in the interpreter's representation of a
callable, the lifetimes used throughout rlox need to be threaded
through properly.
This is currently not optimal, for two reasons:
* following the design of the book's scanner, the source code slice
needs to still be available at runtime. Rust makes this explicit,
but it seems unnecessary.
* the interpreter's lifetime is now bounded to be smaller than the
source's, which means that the REPL no longer persists state between
evaluations
Both of these can be fixed eventually by diverging the scanner from
the book slightly, but right now that's not my priority.

This lets the parser collect multiple errors instead of returning
after the first one, with some optimistic synchronisation after

... still not that interesting, but at this point slightly divergent
from the book:
The book embraces mutability for interpreter state, initially for
tracking whether an error condition has occured.
I avoid this by instead defining an error type and collecting the
error values, to be handled later on.
Notes: So far nothing special, but this is just the beginning of the
book. I like the style it is written in and it has pointed to some
interesting resources, such as a 1965 paper titled "The Next 700
Languages".
