Added a proper config file tokenizer that supports escaping sequences

and comments.

This allows for:

'"foo bar"' can be represented as 'foo\ bar'.

And allows for comments using the hash symbol (#), but not inside
escapes or quotes. "#this is not a comment", \#this\ is\ not\ a comment.

All configuration file parsers should be rewritten using this functionality.
