Modernize:
* Replace `var` with `const` / `let`.
* Wrap `switch` cases with `const`/`let` in blocks.
* Replace common functions with arrow functions.
* Replace string concatenation with template literals.
* Shorthand object literals.
* Use destructuring and spread.
Optimize:
* Move RegExp declaration out of loops.
* Replace `.match()` with `.test()` in boolean context.
* Replace RegExp with string when string suffices.
* Make RegExp more strict to reject unrelated cases.
* Make RegExp do the trimming to eliminate many `.trim()` calls.
* Cache retrieved object properties.
* Remove conditions that cannot be false.
* Remove code that seems obsolete
(it means a state that cannot happen or is not typical).
Clarify:
* Sync code examples in comments with the actual source state.
* Expand some one-letter variable names.
* Rename confusingly similar variables.
* Move variable declarations closer to their context.
* Remove non-actual commented out code.
* Unify blank lines between top-level blocks.
Fix:
* Fix conditions that cannot be true.
Guard:
* Throw on unexpected state more often.

* Simplify regular expressions (see below)
* Remove unneeded `parseYAML()` wrapper
* Remove unused callback argument
Regular expression simplifications include:
* Changing trailing `*?$/` to `*$/` because non-greedy matching to the
end of a line will not change behavior
* Change regexp beginnings like `/^(?:property:?\s*)?[^.\[]+` to the
equivalent `/[^.\]]+`
* For regular expressions changed per the above, remove
case-insensitivity if it no longer affects the regexp

The `/` character does not need to be escaped when occurring inside a
character class in a regular expression. Remove such instances of
escaping in the code base.

The `.` character does not need to be escaped when it appears inside a
regular expression character class. This removes instances of
unnecessary escapes of the `.` character.
This also removes a few unnecessary escapes of the `(` and `)`
characters within character classes too.

Previously, an attempt was made to make sure the links state is
inherited. Unfortunately, this support was not complete, which
results in various unresolved links in the JSON output (as an
example, [1] contains `initialized by calling
[<code>buf.fill(fill, encoding)</code>][<code>buf.fill()</code>]`).
This commit completes that attempt. After this commit, individual
instances of the parser (for descriptions) inherit the links state
from the root lexer, so that individual Markdown links in descriptions
could be resolved. That same example is now substituted with
`initialized by calling <a href=\"#buffer_buf_fill_value_offset_end_encoding\"><code>buf.fill(fill, encoding)</code></a>`.

The description of "[start[, end]]" in the doc shows warning of
"invalid param" when parsing an optional parameter in the section.
This fixes insufficient trimming of right square brackets.

The copyright and license notice is already in the LICENSE file. There
is no justifiable reason to also require that it be included in every
file, since the individual files are not individually distributed except
as part of the entire package.
The parameter parser specifically looked for the old bracket syntax.
This generated a lot of warnings when building the docs. Those warnings
have been fixed by changing the parsing logic.
