[Bug 17509] Include sign in NUMBER, PERCENTAGE, and DIMENSION tokens

Bjoern Hoehrman notes that 4.1.1 (Tokenization) says:

  # COMMENT tokens do not occur in the grammar (to keep it readable),
  # but any number of these tokens may appear anywhere outside other
  # tokens.

and so the proposal to add the word "immediately" is not sufficient to solve
the problem in any case; although Kang-Hao (Kenny) Lu notes that 4.1 says:

  # In this specification, the expressions "immediately before" or
  # "immediately after" mean with no intervening white space or
  # comments.

It seems that editorial work is needed to remove the conflict between these two
sentences if the proposal to solve the issue by inserting the word
"immediately" is adopted.
