syntax: Fix language detection by shebang

The switch to tree-house accidentally dropped some shebang parsing code
from the loader's function to detect by shebang. This change restores
that. The new code is slightly different as it's using a `regex_cursor`
regex on the Rope rather than eagerly converting the text to a
`Cow<str>` and running a regular regex across it.
