bpo-40246: Revert reporting of invalid string prefixes (GH-19888)
Due to backwards compatibility concerns regarding keywords immediately followed by a string without whitespace between them (like in `bg="#d00" if clear else"#fca"`) will fail to parse, commit 41d5b94af44e34ac05d4cd57460ed104ccf96628 has to be reverted.

+Reporting a specialised error message for invalid string prefixes, which was introduced in :issue:`40246`, is being reverted due to backwards compatibility concerns for strings that immediately follow a reserved keyword without whitespace between them. Constructs like `bg="#d00" if clear else"#fca"` were failing to parse, which is not an acceptable breakage on such short notice.
