> Implement a source code highlighter based on Parrot's lexer, the new highlighter should be smarter. e.g.
> It can show different colors in GString `"abc${'123' + 123}def${a + b}"`
> P.S. Currently the new highlighter will render all source code for each editing, so it can not be used to render large source code. The new highlighter is NOT enabled by default
