This change does two things:
It adds support for attacking comments to tokens in the token package, as well as a way to query the actual text of a comment token. Comment tokens which are token trees are used to represent tokens that are grouped together.
It adds support in the lexer for automatically attaching comments. I have included a test consisting of all of the funny cases listed on protobuf.com.
