Output unnamed variables

[chongkai]

Before this PR

Exception is thrown when there are unnamed variables in source code (issue: #1236).

The error is like, "com.palantir.javaformat.java.FormatterException: 217:106: error: expected token: '_'; generated instead".

The cases we have seen include:

• unnamed var in try-with blocks,
  try (var _ = abc) {}
• unnamed argument in lambda
  (a, _) -> {}

After this PR

The source code can be formatted properly when containing unnamed variables.

Possible downsides?

I see tests are missing, that could prolong the code-review process 🤔
