bonsaisitter: Bindings to the 'Tree-Sitter' Parsing Library

A runtime for the 'Tree-sitter' parsing library <https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-sitter/> that mirrors the API of the 'treesitter' package, so it can serve as a drop-in replacement. Parses source code into concrete syntax trees and updates them incrementally as the source changes. Grammars are supplied by separate packages such as 'treesitter.r', so the runtime itself depends on nothing beyond base R.
