Knockout throws an error if it finds an unmatched closing virtual element (<!--/ko-->). This feature breaks old HTML pages in our system.

Hi,
taking into account the Knockout 3.5.0 has been released changing its minor number of semver, it shouldn't break old code.
Yet we have old HTML pages which have unmatched <-- /ko --> tags.
The code starting crashing as KO throws an error.

For some reasons we are not able to update the code of the old HTML pages.
How could we disable that feature in order to keep compatibility with old pages?

Perhaps we should only output this as an error in debug mode.

@mbest hey, thanks for working on supporting the Knockout. Would you happen to have any updates about the 3.5.2 release?
