Be more careful about interpreting a label as a mistyped char literal.

Currently the parser will interpret any label in certain positions as a mistyped char literal, on the assumption that the trailing single quote was accidentally omitted. This is reasonable for a label like 'a (because 'a' would be valid) but not reasonable for a label like 'abc (because 'abc' is not valid). This commit restricts this behaviour only to labels that would be valid char literals, via the new `could_be_unclosed_char_literal` function. The commit also augments the `label-is-actually-char.rs` test in a couple of ways: - Adds testing of labels with identifiers longer than one char, e.g. 'abc. - Adds a new match with simpler patterns, because the `recover_unclosed_char` call in `parse_pat_with_range_pat` was not being exercised (in this test or any other ui tests). Fixes rust-lang#120397, an assertion failure, which was caused by this behaviour in the parser interacting with some new stricter char literal checking added in rust-lang#120329.
