1207209 - prettifying CSS does not handle comments properly

I noticed a minor bug in CSS prettifying that is exposed by the
as-authored project (bug 984880).

Suppose you have a rule with two declarations, like:

body { color: red; color: #f0c; }

This will be prettified as

body {
  color: red;
  color: #f0c;
}

If you then disable the second property, the rule rewriter will
comment out the second declaration.  The result will then be prettified
as:

body {
  color: red; /*! color: #f0c; */
}

To the user this is a bit confusing as it seems that the style
editor deleted the newline.
