BUG #15273: Lexer bug with UESCAPE

The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference: 15273
Logged by: Yaroslav Schekin
Email address: ladayaroslav(at)yandex(dot)ru
PostgreSQL version: 10.4
Operating system: Any
Description:

Hello.

Compare this:
> SELECT U&'a' UESCAPE 'x';
----------
a
(1 row)
To this:
> SELECT U&'a' /*c1*/ UESCAPE /*c2*/ 'x';

ERROR: syntax error at or near "'x'"
LINE 1: SELECT U&'a' /*c1*/ UESCAPE /*c2*/ 'x';
^
I think the former is a bug, as, per ISO SQL, a comment is equivalent to
whitespace (with newline), and therefore, should be ignored here.

(Thanks a lot to RhodiumToad who not only initially found and documented
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_vs_SQL_Standard#Lexing_of_split_string_literals,
but also discussed it with me on IRC and conducted the investigation of
relevant SQL standards.)
