This makes groovy-mode highlight strings more accurately.

Slashy strings like /foo/ are now highlighted as strings
String interpolation is not highlighted in single quoted strings, because it doesn't apply there.

This doesn't cover dollar slashy strings like $/foo/$ , but this is a definite improvement.

It also ensures comment-region does the right thing.

OK, I've added support for $/foo/$ too.

@russel this is ready to merge, are you happy to do so?
