Inline pragmas for pattern synonyms
Related issue: #12178 (closed)
This is a rebase and slight cleanup of !1047 (closed) (I didn't have permissions to commit to the original repo, so I pushed it to Obsidian's instead).
Following the rebase, I've fixed up the shift/reduce conflict in the parser (well, annotated it with %shift and added a Note), and then fixed up the tests to be hopefully slightly more reliable. We're still grepping through Core output, but hopefully in a way which isn't quite as fragile.
