Description Mark Lam 2013-03-21 12:41:21 PDT 
Currently, the lexer keeps a m_charPosition field which is supposed to track the m_code pointer.   m_charPosition used to be m_column which cannot be computed directly from the m_code pointer.  Now that we’re computing the char position instead of the column, we can get rid of m_charPosition and just compute it as m_code - m_codeStartPlusOffset, where m_codeStartPlusOffset is m_codeStart + the SourceCode offset.

This fixes a bug where m_charPosition gets out of sync with m_code when we “rewind” the lexer by setting m_code back to an earlier position in the source string.
