The new Swift parser in SwiftSyntax does not ever construct Unknown*Syntax nodes. These are a relic of the C++, which would use these nodes as stand-ins for cases where the legacy parser did not known how to build a node, or built one incorrectly. Simultaneously, the formatter was relying on unknown nodes containing verbatim text it would leave untouched. The general replacement for that case is UnexpectedSyntax. Drop the Unknown*Syntax entrypoints in the visitors, and replace references to "unknown syntax" with "unexpected syntax".
