devtools/check_quotes.py: add -k option, make `...` more nuanced.

Splits BOLT files into per-section chunks so wildcards can't inadvertently
cross section headers, supports `...`-at-start semantics, and adds make-style `-k`

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit updates an internal developer tool (check_quotes.py) that verifies whether comments in the source code accurately quote the BOLT specification. The changes add a keep-going option, improve wildcard matching, and handle single-line comment markers. There is no runtime Lightning node code changed, no user-facing behavior, and no security issue present in the commit itself.

Recommended action

No security action required; this is a tooling-only quality-of-life improvement. Reviewers can treat it as normal code maintenance.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
