Update leading string for doctex line comments #4175

I changed the leading string for line comments in doctex files to %^^A. This would cause the line to be ignored in all scenarios: DocStrip by ins file, TeX, and LaTeX.

We have outsourced our LaTeX syntax highlighting grammar to vscode-latex-basics. Please open an issue there.

edit: double checked and figured doctex not migrated over there. However, ^^A is only enabled in .dtx. It can't and won't be recognized as tex or expl3.
