As noted before, accessing a specific child in the node requires a linear traversal of the children (though we can skip tokens, because the tag is encoded in the pointer itself).
It is possible to recover O(1) access with another representation.
We explicitly store optional and missing (required by the grammar, but not present) nodes.
That is, we use `Option<Node>` for children.
We also remove trivia tokens from the tree.
This way, each child kind genrerally occupies a fixed position in a parent, and we can use index access to fetch it.

The cost is that we now need to allocate space for all not-present optional nodes.
So, `fn foo() {}` will have slots for visibility, unsafeness, attributes, abi and return type.

In other words, one needs *one* arc bump when initiating a traversal.
To get rid of allocations, `rowan` takes advantage of `SyntaxNode: !Sync` and uses a thread-local free list of `SyntaxNode`s.
In a typical traversal, you only directly hold a few `SyntaxNode`s at a time (and their ancesstors indirectly), so a free list proportional to the depth of the tree removes all allocations in a typical case.

### AST

There are two principal sources of inputs for the parser:

The primary motivation for this is that syntax tree is not necessary produced by the parser, it may also be assembled manually from pieces (which happens all the time in refactorings).
Instead, parser reports errors to an error sink, which stores them in a `Vec`.
If possible, errors are not reported during parsing and are postponed for a separate validation step.
For example, parser accepts visibility modifiers on trait methods, but then a separate tree traversal flags all such visibilites as erroneous.
