They are simply ignored now. This allows for a more correct behavior when
they are placed before translatable constructs on the same line.
Previously, the latter were wrongly ignored because the former were
preserved when converting template code to the internal Python-syntax
form later fed to xgettext but Python has no ``/* ... */``-style
comments.
Also, special comments directed to translators are now only taken in
account when they are located at the end of a line. e.g.::
{# Translators: ignored #}{% trans "Literal A" %}{# Translators: valid, associated with "Literal B" below #}
{% trans "Literal B" %}
Behavior of ``{% comment %}...{% endcomment %}``tags remains unchanged.
Thanks juneih at redpill-linpro dot com for the report and Claude for
his work on the issue.
This makes it consistent with behavior introduced when fixing #11240 in
processing of literal passed to the trans tag to avoid double escaping
(i.e. `'%%%%'` sequences in resulting PO files.)
Also, cleaned up tests changes from r17190 (removed commented out code and
implemented compatibility with Python 2.5.)

This avoids problems with unintended automatic detection, marking and
validation of Python string formatting specifiers performed by
xgettext(1)/msgfmt(1) that stem from the fact that under the hood makemessages
converts templates to Python code before passing them to xgettext.
This also makes it consistent with its behavior on literals passed to the
blocktrans tag.
Thanks Jannis and claude for reviewing and feedback.
