$3

Parse a given regular expression literal then make AST object.

This is equivalent to new RegExpParser(options).parseLiteral(source).

- Parameters:
- source (string | RegExp) The source code to parse.
- options? ([RegExpParser.Options]) The options to parse.
- Return:
- The AST of the regular expression.

$3

Validate a given regular expression literal.

This is equivalent to new RegExpValidator(options).validateLiteral(source).

- Parameters:
- source (string) The source code to validate.
- options? ([RegExpValidator.Options]) The options to validate.

$3

Visit each node of a given AST.

This is equivalent to new RegExpVisitor(handlers).visit(ast).

- Parameters:
- ast ([AST.Node]) The AST to visit.
- handlers ([RegExpVisitor.Handlers]) The callbacks.
