Parsing of script metadata can be very slow or freeze when file has many comments #4

Take a JavaScript file, add lots of comments in the form "// blaa" behind the metadata block. Can have a newline after the metadata, which should prevent parser from continuing.

Used regex approach is just too slow and complicated. Simplify with line-iterating approach.

Parsing reimplemented.
