Improve escape sequence support
Specifically: 1. In the double-quoted strings we now only do effective escaping of the special `$("\` characters plus `)` for symmetry. 2. There is now support for "escape sequence expansion" in the form $\X where \X can be any of the C/C++ simple escape sequences (\n, \t, etc) plus \0 (which in C/C++ is an octal escape sequence). For example: info "foo$\n$\tbar$\n$\tbaz" Will print: buildfile:1:1: info: foo bar baz
