Refactor Parser/pgen and add documentation and explanations (GH-15373)
* Refactor Parser/pgen and add documentation and explanations
To improve the readability and maintainability of the parser
generator perform the following transformations:
* Separate the metagrammar parser in its own class to simplify
the parser generator logic.
* Create separate classes for DFAs and NFAs and move methods that
act exclusively on them from the parser generator to these
classes.
* Add docstrings and comment documenting the process to go from
the grammar file into NFAs and then DFAs. Detail some of the
algorithms and give some background explanations of some concepts
that will helps readers not familiar with the parser generation
process.
* Select more descriptive names for some variables and variables.
* PEP8 formatting and quote-style homogenization.
The output of the parser generator remains the same (Include/graminit.h
and Python/graminit.c remain untouched by running the new parser generator).
