In line comments are broken #110

Closed jimon closed 9 years ago

BuildFox allow comments like this :

a = 1 # wow comment

But apparently ninja doesn't have such concept, so when you actually want to use # character in value like this :

a = 1 $# wow value

Then it fails in ninja (at least in command = ... variable in rules)

In result we need to remove EOL comments because we want our format to be super set of ninja manifest.
