Telling whether a string is a valid Go identifier can seem like an easy task, but it's easy to forget about the edge cases. For example, some implementations out there forget that an empty string or keywords like "func" aren't valid identifiers. Add a simple implementation with proper Unicode support, and start using it in cmd/cover and cmd/doc. Other pieces of the standard library reimplement part of this logic, but don't use a "func(string) bool" signature, so we're leaving them untouched for now. Add some tests too, to ensure that we actually got these edge cases correctly. Since telling whether a string is a valid identifier requires knowing that it's not a valid keyword, add IsKeyword too. The internal map was already accessible via Lookup, but "Lookup(str) != IDENT" isn't as easy to understand as IsKeyword(str). And, as per Josh's suggestion, we could have IsKeyword (and probably Lookup too) use a perfect hash function instead of a global map. Finally, for consistency with these new functions, add IsExported. That makes go/ast.IsExported a bit redundant, so perhaps it can be deprecated in favor of go/token.IsExported in the future. Clarify that token.IsExported doesn't imply token.IsIdentifier, to avoid ambiguity. Fixes #30064.
