YAML permits U+00A0 in scalar content, but the scalar rules treated it as unmatched whitespace and emitted an Error token. Recognize it as scalar content in block, flow, and quoted scalars, with a golden regression test. Fixes pygments#2827

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Can we combine this with the rule below?
Match regular and non-breaking spaces in one rule since both produce the same token.

YAML permits U+00A0 in scalar content, but the lexer emitted an
Errortoken for it. This recognizes non-breaking spaces in block, flow, and quoted scalars and adds a golden regression test.Fixes #2827
