When the active syntax contains a comment command that specifies the
empty string, this should override the default comment of "#" and
should disable the Meta-3 keystroke.

To achieve this, the comment string is now set by default to "#" for
all syntaxes, so that it will be set when no comment command is given
(including for the "none" syntax), and is unset only by explicitly
specifying «comment ""» in a syntax file.
