rcfile: don't require backslashing in the argument of 'comment'

Eradicate the need for backslashes, so that the start of the nanorc
manual becomes true, where it says that quotes inside strings don't
need to be escaped.  In the bargain achieve that the empty string
always switches commenting off.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51370,
and fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51394.
