Fix for #4804 -- escaped backslashes in interpolated strings

Part of the ongoing refinement / cleanup of the string interpolation semantics.
When scanning for an unescaped string terminator we now also allow an 0 or more
pairs of backslashes (that is, escaped backslashes) before the terminator.

Thanks to Jacob for the test I should have added.
