HCL2 uses the unicode definition of identifiers, which permits underscores only in the ID_Continue portion, and not in ID_Start.

It is a reasonable expectation from other languages that identifiers can begin with an underscore, so we'll extend the unicode definition here to include underscore in ID_Start, in similar vein to how we extended ID_Continue to include dashes.
