Significant refactoring of grammar

This is a large batch of changes that significantly improve output:

- Fix string and backtick parsing
- Add support for escape sequences
- Simplify recipe matching
- Fix single varidic parameter handling
- Simplify shebang parsing
- Add recipe line prefixes
- Fix allowing leading `/` for paths
- Add more labels everywhere
- Update highlighting where needed
- Add a lot more highlighting tests
- Add script to convert from tree-sitter flavor bindings to nvim
- Verify no tests include parsed errors
