    The original algorithm tried to delegate the folding to the tokens so
    that those tokens whose folding rules differed could specify the
    differences.  However, this resulted in a lot of duplicated code because
    most of the rules were the same.
    
    The new algorithm moves all folding logic into a set of functions
    external to the token classes, but puts the information about which
    tokens can be folded in which ways on the tokens...with the exception of
    mime-parameters, which are a special case (which was not even
    implemented in the old folder).
    
    This algorithm can still probably be improved and hopefully simplified
    somewhat.
    
    Note that some of the test expectations are changed.  I believe the
    changes are toward more desirable and consistent behavior: in general
    when (re) folding a line the canonical version of the tokens is
    generated, rather than preserving errors or extra whitespace.
