Jack O'Connor 4712503c6d [ty] cargo insta test --force-update-snapshots (#22313)
Snapshot tests recently started reporting this warning:

> Snapshot test passes but the existing value is in a legacy format.
> Please run cargo insta test --force-update-snapshots to update to a
> newer format.

This PR is the result of that forced update.

One file (crates/ruff_db/src/diagnostic/render/full.rs) seems to get
corrupted, because it contains strings with unprintable characters that
trigger some bug in cargo-insta. I've manually reverted that file, and
also manually reverted the `input_file:` lines, which we like.

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).
