i18n: only extract comments marked with "TRANSLATORS:"

When extract l10n messages, we use "--add-comments" option to keep
comments right above the l10n messages for references.  But sometimes
irrelevant comments are also extracted.  For example in the following
code block, the comment in line 2 will be extracted as comment for the
l10n message in line 3, but obviously it's wrong.

        { OPTION_CALLBACK, 0, "ignore-removal", &addremove_explicit,
          NULL /* takes no arguments */,
          N_("ignore paths removed in the working tree (same as
          --no-all)"),
          PARSE_OPT_NOARG, ignore_removal_cb },

Since almost all comments for l10n translators are marked with the same
prefix (tag): "TRANSLATORS:", it's safe to only extract comments with
this special tag.  I.E. it's better to call xgettext as:

        xgettext --add-comments=TRANSLATORS: ...

Also tweaks the multi-line comment in "init-db.c", to make it start with
the proper tag, not "* TRANSLATORS:" (which has a star before the tag).
