[PATCH] parse/ConfHandler: Add negative lookahead to spot some quoting problems

[PATCH] parse/ConfHandler: Add negative lookahead to spot some quoting problems

[Richard Purdie]

Syntax like:

FOO = "bar" # eek"

would result in FOO taking the value 'bar" #eek' which is clearly
not the intention. Whilst our metadata is riddled with mixtures of even
quotes like:

FOO = "d.getVar("X")"

odd numbers of quotes seem rare. This patch adds detection of one odd
quote which we don't have any of in OE-Core so it seems a valid sanity
improvement.
