DOORS DXL: Add support for single line comments ("// some comment <EOL>") in DXL string to eval_(), similar to how checkDXL() behaves

Currently eval_() cannot handle single line comments ("// some comment <EOL>") in its input string parameter, as it prematurely escapes string.

This limitation is not documented, and therefore not clear to users. This limitation contradicts the behaviour of an often related DXL perm: checkDXL() which can handle such single line comments fine. It breaks an assumed continuity between code passing the checkDXL() test, and executing okay in eval_() .

The request is to bring eval_() in line with checkDXL(). 

Eval_() is not part of the DXL manual shipped with each product version. It has last been publicly documented in the API manual for DOORS 9.early (<9.6) (EOS).
