scope.c: Simplify and clarify comment
This comment seems to imply that this code is just working around a problem in gv.c, which we could simply correct there. I’ve already tried making the quoted code in gv.c handle *^H without a hash, but it doesn’t actually solve the problem. The real problem is that rv2hv could also add a hash to *^H, via GvHVn, and that is simply not set up to deal with autovivifying magic at all, and probably shouldn’t be. Also, quoting a piece of code that occurs elsewhere is just asking for it to drift apart. By this time, the code in gv.c that is quoted in scope.c is actually three times the length now, and looks completely different.
