Syntax highlighting incorrectly reports char literals as lifetimes

[haze]

• rust.vim version: 255a81f

Steps to reproduce:

Try to use a char such as '_' or 'c'

Expected vs. actual behavior:

Expected: the highlight group should be character (rsCharacter) Actual: the highlight group is marked as lifetime (rsInferredLifetime and rsUserLifetime)

I can’t reproduce this on Vim and don’t intend to install NeoVim to try to reproduce it there.

[haze]

I'm using this command to print the syntax stack

function! SynStack()
  if !exists("*synstack")
    return
  endif
  echo map(synstack(line('.'), col('.')), 'synIDattr(v:val, "name")')
endfunc

It's okay if you don't want to use neovim, if it's a neovim only issue feel free to close. I'm not sure why there would be an editor difference though, are you using the same version?

I have NVIM v0.4.3 and cannot reproduce this too.
