I was kind of hoping that sometime in the near future our tree-sitter 
code would somehow plug into syntax-ppss (maybe via advice or etc) to 
provide the same results faster.

Or that we'd add similar helpers which would dispatch to either 
syntax-ppss or tree-sitter, depending on whether the latter is enabled 
and working.

The first approach will be more compatible for third-party code to use 
right now; the second will probably be more powerful. We might even do both.

As a result, a lot of functions won't have to reimplement the quoted 
part. Inside, and (more importantly) outside Emacs core.

So my preference would be to check in the implementation as-is (if 
everybody agrees with the behavior), and then migrate it to new helpers 
(in case plugging into syntax-ppss won't be automatic).

But I don't really mind the code you posted, if somebody (e.g. Eli) is 
going to insist on it. It just doesn't seem critical from the 
performance POV, and the variable treesit-comment-type-regexp seems to 
be a little out of place. But then again, if the helpers will be put in 
prog-mode.el, the var will be there as well.
