fix(script): stop a '#' comment continuing past a trailing backslash (#317)

The change

2525 @staticmethod
2626 def generate_common_tokens(source_code, addition, match_holder=None):
27- _until_end = r"(?:\\\n|[^\n])*"
27+ # A '#' line comment ends at the newline; a trailing backslash does
28+ # not continue it onto the next line (issue #317). C/C++ '//' comments,
29+ # which legitimately continue on a backslash, go through CodeReader
30+ # directly and are unaffected.
2831 return CodeReader.generate_tokens(
2932 source_code,
30- r"|\#" + _until_end + addition,

The check that tells the two apart

fail→pass·test/test_languages/testRuby.py::Test_Ruby_comment_line_continuation::test_backslash_at_end_of_comment_keeps_next_line

Check file test/test_languages/testRuby.py, taken without changes from the fix and copied onto the older code, so the exact same check runs against both versions.
