[PATCH olang v1 3/4] lexer: add token lookahead capability

[Johnny Richard <johnny@johnnyrichard.com>]

In order to skip line breaks (LF) we have to be able to spy the next
token without consume it.

This patch also adds a function to **lexer_peek_next** token, which is
equivalent to **lexer_look_ahead(n = 1)**.
