Add no-c-format special comment

In order for xgettext to mark a string no-c-format when it contains a percent
char (%) that is not a C format specifier, you should add a /*
xgettext:no-c-format */ comment before the string.

This bug was triggered in the French translation (not yet committed) where
msgfmt -vc yield an error because the % is placed just before the end point.
