Title: repl: Catch syntax errors better

Replace the growing list of 'isSyntaxError' whackamole conditions with a
smarter approach. This creates a vm Script object *first*, which will
parse the code and raise a SyntaxError right away.

We still do need the test function, but only because strict mode errors
are not recoverable, and should be raised right away.

Also fixes a very difficult-to-test nit where the '...' indentation is
not properly cleared when you ^C out of a syntax error.

Closes #6093
