-`test.ignoreErrorOrder` is a boolean value indicating that the order of
-`ParseError` tokens relative to other tokens in the output stream is
-unimportant, and implementations should ignore such differences between
-their output and `expected_output_tokens`. (This is used for errors
-emitted by the input stream preprocessing stage, since it is useful to
-test that code but it is undefined when the errors occur). If it is
-omitted, it defaults to `false`.
