libexpr: Recognize newline in more places in lexer

Browse source 
Flex's regexes have an annoying feature: the dot matches everything
except a newline. This causes problems for expressions like:

"${0}\
"

where the backslash-newline combination matches this rule instead of the
intended one mentioned in the comment:

    <STRING>\$|\\|\$\\ {
                    /* This can only occur when we reach EOF, otherwise the above
                    (...|\$[^\{\"\\]|\\.|\$\\.)+ would have triggered.
                    This is technically invalid, but we leave the problem to the
                    parser who fails with exact location. */
                    return STR;
                }
However, the parser actually accepts the resulting token sequence
('"' DOLLAR_CURLY 0 '}' STR '"'), which is a problem because the lexer
rule didn't assign anything to yylval. Ultimately this leads to a crash
when dereferencing a NULL pointer in ExprConcatStrings::bindVars().

The fix does change the syntax of the language in some corner cases
but I think it's only turning previously invalid (or crashing) syntax
to valid syntax. E.g.

"a\
b"

and

''a''\
b''

were previously syntax errors but now both result in "a\nb".
