HTMLUtils had a number of private functions that navigate through the CodeMirror code coloring tokens in the current editor. These are completely generic (not specific to HTML), and would be useful for extensions that need to do light parsing based on the tokenization. This pull request factors those functions out into a separate TokenUtils class.

Cool. Eventually I think we should have a TokenIterator sort of class that packages this up even more cleanly (and probably hides _codeMirror a bit better too), and this seems like a solid step in that direction.

Diff looks good to me -- merging.
