SAIL's grammar can easily support nested comments.

Implemented: Lexer supports nested comments with nesting level of up to (2^32 - 1) now. I.e. the SAIL compiler works with nested comments with any useful level of nesting.

The missing thing now is just proper highlighting in the editor's window as it was implemented by Altar independently of the lexer.
