#23: Cleanup: dead grammar rules (pattern, inline_function, function

Cleanup: dead grammar rules (pattern, inline_function, function_block, equal, symbols) #23

Summary

grammar.js contains several rules that are defined but never used:

Rule	Status
`pattern`	Empty body `() => ""` — never referenced
`inline_function`	Commented out in `definition`, still declared
`function_block`	Declared, never referenced
`function_inline_block`	Declared, never referenced
`equal`	Declared, never referenced
`symbols`	Declared, never referenced

These bloat the grammar, confuse readers, and generate phantom node types in src/node-types.json.

Expected

Delete each unused rule after confirming it is unreferenced (grep grammar.js for each name). Keep arrow (used by function) and _operation (used by return).
