one comment or several comments.

@defun forward-comment count
This function moves point forward across @var{count} complete comments
(that is, including the starting delimiter and the terminating
delimiter if any).  It moves backward if @var{count} is negative.  If
it encounters anything other than a comment or whitespace, it stops,
leaving point at the place where it stopped.  This includes (for
instance) finding the end of a comment when moving forward and
expecting the beginning of one.  The function also stops immediately
after moving over the specified number of complete comments.

This function cannot tell whether the ``comments'' it traverses are
embedded within a string.  If they look like comments, it treats them
as comments.
