HeaderParser.pm - parse single quoted backslash properly
@khwilliamson gave me a test script which was breaking because we did not handle single quoted escapes like '\' and '\n' and the like. This fixes the tokenizer pattern to handle these without dieing, although we do not validate that the escape sequence itself is legal, we no longer choke on having backslash something in the single quote.
This patch sequence also includes a commit which teaches t/porting/header_parser.t how to update its own Data::Dumper based test. Updating this test manually was annoying, so I made the script do it for us when needed.
