Due to a problem with ripper we do not recognize break as invalid code. It's confusing that "Syntax OK" is output in that case.

When there's no syntax error, the algorithm should not say anything. The exception is in the CLI and that's for compatibility with ruby -wc

$ cat /tmp/break.rb
break
⛄️ 3.1.2 🚀 /Users/rschneeman/Documents/projects/syntax_suggest (schneems/no-syntax-not-okay-break)
$ ruby -wc /tmp/break.rb
Syntax OK

Note that this is invalid, running this code will raise a Syntax error.

$ exe/syntax_suggest /tmp/break.rb
Syntax OK

Close #157
