///   `#' (operator | (identifier (`.' identifier)*))
/// ;
/// A symbol literal #id where id does not begin with an underscore (_) is
/// equivalent to the expression const Symbol(id).
/// A symbol literal #_id evaluates to the object that would be returned by
/// the call mirror.getPrivateSymbol(id) where mirror is an instance of the
/// class LibraryMirror defined in the library dart:mirrors, reflecting the
