Summary: pydoc doesn't find all module doc strings

Initial Comment:
pydoc.synopsis() attempts to find a module's doc string
by parsing the module text. But the parser only
recognizes strings created with """ and r""". Any other
docstring is ignored.

I've attached a patch against Python 2.4.1 that fixes
pydoc to recognize ''' and r''' strings but really it
should recognize any allowable string format.
