Parser for ES6?

[joe]

There's my crappy transpiler:

https://github.com/joeedh/fairmotion/tree/master/tools/extjs_cc

Which uses a parser generator (and yes, the standard is quite helpful in
pointing out ways to make JS work in a bottom-up grammar).   The grammar is
inline with the code, so I've extracted it and attached it to this email.
Note that I've extended the grammar a bit, mostly to implement a type
annotation system but there are a few other non-standard things as well (I
still need to replace my python-style multiline strings with template
strings, for example).  The grammar is also a bit messy.

I believe the only thing I'm missing is template strings and some of the
new numeric literal stuff (e.g. binary literals).  I just recently added a
bunch of stuff in preparation to move my codebase to a different transpiler
(one I don't have to maintain myself).  Oh, and I think I'm missing yield
assignments in generators (e.g. var x = yield y), too.  Also, I'm not sure
if arrow functions work in all cases, I have an ambiguity in my grammar
there (which I don't feel like debugging because I'm switching to babel :)
).

The regular expression stuff is kindof interesting; figuring out how to
parse RE literals wasn't easy (it's not strictly possible to parse them
with a RE tokenizer, but I managed to hackishly make it work).
