1040: Do not propagate parse errors in match repetitions r=CohenArthur a=CohenArthur

Since parsing repetitions is very eager, the parser might accumulate
bogus errors by trying to match more repetitions than there are. We can
avoid this by clearing the parsing errors if parsing repetitions
returned a valid result. This should not be an issue for previous
matchers erroring out, as they would immediately return upon failure and
not reach inside other match functions.

We need to figure out the best way to emit parser errors, as we do not always want to emit them in `match_fragment`. I think for now the easiest is to just *not* emit parse errors and simply error out with "failed to match macro rule". We will need to think about adding a bunch of hints too in order to make using macros easier.

Fixes #958
