[red-knot] Detect semantic syntax errors (#17463)
Summary
--

This PR extends semantic syntax error detection to red-knot. The main
changes here are:

1. Adding `SemanticSyntaxChecker` and `Vec<SemanticSyntaxError>` fields
to the `SemanticIndexBuilder`
2. Calling `SemanticSyntaxChecker::visit_stmt` and `visit_expr` in the
`SemanticIndexBuilder`'s `visit_stmt` and `visit_expr` methods
3. Implementing `SemanticSyntaxContext` for `SemanticIndexBuilder`
4. Adding new mdtests to test the context implementation and show
diagnostics

(3) is definitely the trickiest and required (I think) a minor addition
to the `SemanticIndexBuilder`. I tried to look around for existing code
performing the necessary checks, but I definitely could have missed
something or misused the existing code even when I found it.

There's still one TODO around `global` statement handling. I don't think
there's an existing way to look this up, but I'm happy to work on that
here or in a separate PR. This currently only affects detection of one
error (`LoadBeforeGlobalDeclaration` or
[PLE0118](https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/rules/load-before-global-declaration/)
in ruff), so it's not too big of a problem even if we leave the TODO.

Test Plan

New mdtests, as well as new errors for existing mdtests

Ruff Python Parser

Ruff's Python parser is a hand-written recursive descent parser which can parse Python source code into an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST). It also utilizes the Pratt parsing technique to parse expressions with different precedence.

Try out the parser in the playground.

Python version support

The parser supports the latest Python syntax, which is currently Python 3.12. It does not throw syntax errors if it encounters a syntax feature that is not supported by the target-version. This will be fixed in a future release (see https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/issues/6591).
