Stability fixup: interaction between newlines and comments (#1975)

* Add test case to illustrate the issue

* Accept carriage returns as valid separators while enumerating comments

Without this acceptance, escaped multi-line statments that use carriage returns will not be counted into the 'ignored_lines' variable since the emitted line values will end with a CR and not an escape character.  That leads to comments associated with the line being incorrectly labeled with the STANDALONE_COMMENT type, affecting comment placement and line space management.

* Remove comment linking to ephemeral build log
