Regarding [Unify node.gyp code styling · Issue #41072 · nodejs/node](nodejs/node#41072), in `node.gyp`, multi-line character strings are combined by inserting `\` before a line break.
That causes 'Unknown escape character' error in `gyp-parser`.
This PR is a bug fix on the `gyp-parser` side.

What steps will reproduce the bug?
In #40481, it combines multiple lines of strings with
\
before a line break.See node/node.gyp at master · nodejs/node
This
\
causes an error in gyp-parser addaleax/gyp-parser: GYP file format parser in JS.I looked at the .gyp docs GYP - Input Format Reference, I wasn't sure if it allowed to combine multiple lines of strings with
\
.But any way, it doesn't match code styling in the same file.
In other places, multiple lines are combined like
#L79
#L849
I think #L1479 should follow the same code styling.
How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?
Always since 16.13.1
What is the expected behavior?
Do not cause errors in other modules.
What do you see instead?
Parse error in gyp-parser.
