qobject: Correct JSON lexer grammar comments

Fix the regex comments describing what we parse as JSON.  No change
to the lexer itself, just to the comments:
- The "" and '' string construction was missing alternation between
different escape sequences
- The construction for numbers forgot to handle optional leading '-'
- The construction for numbers was grouped incorrectly so that it
didn't permit '0.1'
- The construction for numbers forgot to mark the exponent as optional
- No mention that our '' string and "\'" are JSON extensions
- No mention of our %d and related extensions when constructing JSON
