#2415: Torrc: allow following a linebreak (\) with a comment

 One major motivation for breaking a torrc entry over multiple lines is to
 make it easier to read a complex command with multiple arguments, like
 MyFamily, or ExitPolicy. A particularly valuable tool in these cases is
 the inline annotation of those entries. For instance: labeling MyFamily
 fingerprints with the node nicknames. To that end, it would be valuable to
 allow comments after linebreaks, the following becomes valid syntax:

 AnEntry aparameter \ #description
  otherparameter \ #commentary
  moreparameters \ #explication
