Recomendation: Handle windows line endings in docstrings

[alexjgriffith]

I was testing out the feasibility of running non-precompiled fennel code on windows and ran into the following windows sepcific error.

(require :colour)
runtime error: ./colour.fnl:105: unfinished string near '"Convert HSL to RGB. '
stack traceback:
  [C]: in function 'assert'
  ./fennel:878: in function 'load-code'
  ./fennel:3838: in function ?
  [C]: in function 'chunk'
  ./fennel:432: in function ?
  [C]: in function 'xpcall'
  ./fennel:437: in function 'repl'
  ./fennel:4529: in function ?
  [C]: in ?

The error occurs in the docstring of a function.

(fn colour.hsl-to-rgb [hin s l a]
  "Convert HSL to RGB. 

Note A remains unchanged."
    (var [r g b] [0 0 0])
...

It can be fixed by removing all newlines from the docstring or changing the line endings from DOS to UNIX.

Would it be feasible to handle multiple types of line endings in the docstring parser? If not, perhaps a note on this limitation should be included in the documentation on docstrings?

Yeah, happy to take a patch for this.
