When encountering one of a few keywords when a semicolon was
expected, suggest the semicolon and recover:

error: expected one of `.`, `;`, `?`, or an operator, found `let`
  --> $DIR/recover-missing-semi.rs:4:5

   |                      - help: missing semicolon here

   |     ^^^

I believe it would make more sense to have the help message be tentative. Even a question mark would help: missing semicolon here?.

I think I agree with @NieDzejkob's comment.

Recover from missing semicolon based on the found token

When encountering one of a few keywords when a semicolon was
expected, suggest the semicolon and recover:
