Esprima does not seem to correctly parse the following code.

Steps to reproduce

require('esprima').parse('(+2)**4');

Actual output

/Volumes/User/.npm-packages/lib/node_modules/esprima/dist/esprima.js:1995
	        throw this.unexpectedTokenError(token, message);
	        ^

  index: 4,
  lineNumber: 1,
  description: 'Unexpected token **'
}

The error does not occur for 2**(+4), so it appears to be specific to the base.

The error does not occur for (1+2)**4, so it appears to be specific to the unary operator.

The same error does occur for the following similar expressions: (-2)**4, (~~2)**4
