Doc comments work in two variants, not in third.

Description

class Program

    def main
        pass

    def m1
        """
        This doc comment is fine.
        """
        pass

    def m2
        """ This is doc comment is also fine. """
        pass

    def m3
        """ This one causes
            it indigestion. """
        pass

test.cobra(17): error: Expecting EOL, but got """ (DOUBLE_QUOTE) instead.

If you don't want the third type then consider this bug a report on the error message, that it could say what the problem is with this format of doc comment.

And that it calls a triple quote a double quote (or maybe it's just referring to the first of the three double quotes?) is a bit odd too.

Its not recognising the construct as a docString ( or anything else) and because of what it is expecting its reporting on the token one behind the one where it failed recognition.

Heres a patch for trapping this and emitting a better error message.

I'm not sure why test case 406 doesn't also get the informative error message. Was that intentional?

Was missing a check and fix for test case 406.
In second patch.

Don't forget to re-open the ticket. I almost missed this as I usually don't look at closed tickets.
