Summary: less restrictive HTML comments

Initial Comment:

Current code enforces requirement that HTML comments open 
with '<!--'. Suggest patch which provides for less restrictive syntax, 
since current syntax requirements rejects significant fraction of 
pages.

Affects sgmllib.py and markupbase.py.
