t5100: make rfc822 comment test more careful
When processing "From" headers in an email, mailinfo "unquotes" quoted
strings and rfc822 parenthesized comments. For quoted strings, we
actually remove the double-quotes, so:
From: "A U Thor" <someone@example.com>
become:
Author: A U Thor
Email: someone@example.com
But for comments, we leave the outer parentheses in place, so:
From: A U (this is a comment) Thor <someone@example.com>
becomes:
Author: A U (this is a comment) Thor
Email: someone@example.com
So what is the comment "unquoting" actually doing? In our code, being in
a comment section has exactly two effects:
1. We'll unquote backslash-escaped characters inside a comment
section.
2. We _won't_ unquote double-quoted strings inside a comment section.
Our test for comments in t5100 checks this:
From: "A U Thor" <somebody@example.com> (this is \(really\) a comment (honestly))
So it is covering (1), but not (2). Let's add in a quoted string to
cover this.
Moreover, because the comment appears at the end of the From header,
there's nothing to confirm that we correctly found the end of the
comment section (and not just the end-of-string). Let's instead move it
to the beginning of the header, which means we can confirm that the
existing quoted string is detected (which will only happen if we know
we've left the comment block).
As expected, the test continues to pass, but this will give us more
confidence as we refactor the code in the next patch.
