Can an Octave string span several lines?  In that case, it's ambiguous
whether

x = [2 2]'
disp(x)

is a transpose character, or an error (with a forgotten ' somewhere), I
guess.

Anyway, I'm reverting the patch, and reopening the other bug report
(bug#25517), which was about

x = 'foo'

not being fontified as a string.
