bug#11613: 24.1.50; ruby-mode highlighting/indentation issues

[Quintus]

The following Ruby code snippets have indentation or syntax highlighting
problems in ruby-mode:

---------------------------------
ary = %w[deg
         abs
         def]
         breaks(indentation)

sym = :@symbol_not_ivar
sym = :"this is a symbol, not a string"

str = "This is \#{no interpolation} despite the #"

#@comment, not ruby code. Whole line highlighted despite the #.
# This is a comment and cannot have #{interpolation} in it.
---------------------------------

None of these is obfuscated or unusual code and is seen every now and
then in normal Ruby code (the last one mostly in documentation comments),
hence they should be highlighted/indented properly.

Marvin

bug#11613: 24.1.50; ruby-mode highlighting/indentation issues

[Dmitry Gutov]

All fixed in revision 109911, except for the string symbol case, which 
makes sense both ways, and IMO is more trouble that it's worth.
