[e-users] e16: better comment parsing in AclassConfigLineParse

Currently comments in bindings.cfg are parsed dumbly (but efficiently)
as the first occurrence of '#', even if it occurs in a pair of quotes.
Attached is a more intelligent way that handles such quotes.

"eesh exec" in a terminal, and the exec commands in the .menu files are
both able to handle this, I guess because the shell is doing that
parsing.

Eg.
	eesh exec logger http://hello#world
	eesh exec logger 'http://hello #world'
