This rewrite of decodeQuotedLit, now called decodeStringLit, is able to
handle both cases with a single function, and also now correctly handles
situations where double-$ and double-! are not followed immediately by
a { symbol, and must thus be treated literally.
This recovery method attempts to place the peeker directly after the
newline indicating the end of the current body item. It does this by
counting open and close bracketing constructs and then returning when
a newline is encountered with no bracketing constructs open.
It's designed for use in the "header" part of a body item, with no
bracketing constructs open yet. It _might_ work in other situations, but
is likely to end up choosing the wrong end point if used in the middle
of a bracketed expression that itself contains newlines.
These are the top-level interface to parsing configuration files in the
native zcl syntax, similarly to the existing methods for parsing other
syntaxes.
