Main branch should have a `SwiftSyntax510` module

Description

While it's suggested to use things like #if canImport(SwiftSyntax509) to target specific versions of SwiftSyntax, there's no way to support versions before 509 and after 509 at the moment. A SwiftSyntax510 module should allow libraries to be compatible with the main branch concurrently with 509, though.

Shouldn't the main branch include both SwiftSyntax510 and SwiftSyntax511, especially since we already have an official release/5.10 branch?

Both should contain SwiftSyntax510. I’m not sure about SwiftSyntax511 because we haven’t named the next release yet. Could be Swift 5.11 or Swift 6.0 and I don’t want to add SwiftSyntax511 only to remove it in favor of SwiftSyntax600.

I've taken the liberty of preparing PRs for both the main and release/5.10 branches, where I've introduced a new target: SwiftSyntax510.
