[v1,2/3] userdiff: support Java record types

Commit Message

A new kind of class was added in Java 16 -- records.[1]  The syntax of
records is similar to regular classes with one important distinction:
the name of the record class is followed by a mandatory list of
components.  The list is enclosed in parentheses, it may be empty, and
it may immediately follow the name of the class or type parameters, if
any, without separating whitespace.

Code examples:

    public record Example(int i, String s) {
    }

    public record WithTypeParameters<A, B>(A a, B b, String s) {
    }

Support records in the builtin userdiff pattern for Java.  Add "record"
to the alternatives of keywords for kinds of class, and match an opening
parenthesis as the first character right after the type name.

An alternative approach could be to have an optional group that would
match both the opening and the closing parentheses with some way of
matching the declarations of the components.  Just use the simpler
regular expression for now.
