libsyntax: better error for lifetimes in patterns
Previously, if you copied a signature from a trait definition such as:
```
fn foo<'a>(&'a Bar) -> bool {}
```
and moved it into an `impl`, there would be an error message:
"unexpected token `'a`"
Adding to the error message that a pattern is expected should help
users to find the actual problem with using a lifetime here.
