Aha, I just had to install `nimble install compiler`. Otherwise it did not find
the package `compiler/parser`:
$ cat parse_nimcode.nim
import compiler/parser
...
$ nim c -r parse_nimcode.nim
Hint: used config file '/.../.local/nim/config/nim.cfg' [Conf]

/.../parse_nimcode.nim(1, 16) Error: cannot open file: compiler/parser
Run
But now it complains about a mismatch:
import compiler/parser
let
code_string: string = "echo \"Hello world!\""
let
code_ast = parseString(code_string)
echo code_ast
Run
$ nim c -r parse_nimcode.nim
...
/.../parse_nimcode.nim(7, 25) Error: type mismatch
Expression: parseString(code_string)
[1] code_string: string
Expected one of (first mismatch at [position]):
[2] proc parseString(s: string; cache: IdentCache; config: ConfigRef;

It probably needs those `cache: IdentCache` and `config: ConfigRef` in the
arguments.
