Vl-plaintoken-p
Tokens for whitespace, comments, operators, punctuation, and keywords.
(vl-plaintoken-p x) is a defaggregate of the following fields.
- type — A keyword symbol that identifies what kind of token this is.
There are many valid types for plain tokens, including
lex-keywords and other kinds of nonkeyword tokens.
Invariant (vl-plaintokentype-p type).
- etext — The actual text that gave rise to this token from the Verilog source
code. Having this text is useful for error reporting, e.g., it
includes location information.
Invariant (and (vl-echarlist-p etext) (consp etext)).
- breakp — Was this the first token on a line.
Invariant (booleanp breakp).

Our lexer returns "plain tokens" when it encounters whitespace,
comments, operators, punctuation, and keywords. We call these tokens
plain because they do not have any extended information beyond what kind
of token they are and which characters formed them.
Subtle. As an optimization, our plaintokens are tagless aggregates, and the
particular ordering of the fields ensures that the type of the plaintoken is
simply its car. We exploit this in the executable versions of functions
like vl-token->etext.
