bug#67262: python-ts-mode cannot identify triple-quoted-strings

[JD Smith]

Bridging emacs syntax to treesitter in a robust way seems like it could be a 
subtle enterprise, so I’d prefer to leave that to one of the experts.  Right 
now the syntax-propertize-function in python-mode does one simple thing: ensure 
triple quotes are properly marked as strings.  Since the treesitter grammar 
doesn’t distinguish between different flavors of strings, something similar 
would still be needed, if we want to continue to treat various string flavors 
distinctly using syntax.  

Is moving all syntactification (beyond just font-lock) over to TS an explicit 
goal for all the *-ts-mode’s?
