    checkhf: handle C++-style comments
    
    "tools/checkhf.pl epan/dissectors/packet-umts_fp.c" gave this error:
    
        Complex regular subexpression recursion limit (32766) exceeded at tools/checkhf.pl line 273.
    
    This is caused by the comment "// ... Indicator's ..." which failed to
    match the single-quoted string and caused "catastrophic backtracking".
    Solution to fix this case is to disallow unescaped newlines (add "\n" to
    the negated character class). Additionally, add logic to remove
    C++-style comments for completeness.
    
    Tested against all epan/dissectors/packet-*.c files, the only difference
    in output is this umts_fp case, the running time has not regressed.
