Currently token parsing on "from ... import ..." is rather loose — it sees the following invalid code as perfectly valid:
This is caused by the parser ignoring non-name values where there should be names, either as the first value or after commas.
This PR ensures only name values are allowed as the first value and any values after commas in the import section.
Sadly this may be a "semi-breaking" change, as it removes some functionality that should have never existed and hopefully nobody relies on.
