comment_prefix should comment to end of line always #138

Currently it only works at the beginning of the line. Allow the comment_prefix to mark it as inline (i.e. to the end of the line)

For the issue of character clash with the comment_prefix; Use double quotes to protect that use case.

Sorry for the late reply (I didn't have much time recently to work on the extension anyway). Do you mean something like this?

car,200
plane,1000
bike,50 # Is this an inline comment?
boat,20

BTW, one possible workaround for trailing CSV comments is to put them into the last "comment" column, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/68865143/2898283 I guess this would be in the spirit of the "comment" field in JSON.
