We currently require to list all the options for `listen' in a single
line, so it's custom to see config like this:

	listen on all tls \
		pki mx.example.org \
		pki mx.example.com \
		auth <auth> \
		filter "whatnot"

(or worse, all on a single physical line)

This has the annoying consequence of breaking comments, since they would
extend to the end of the (logical) line.  And it's also a bit ugly.

So, why don't allow for brances to group the options?  IMHO this reads
better and is easier to write/maintain for newbies as well as well as
for seasoned users:

	listen on all {
		tls # now with comments!
		pki mx.example.org
		pki mx.example.com
		auth <auth>
		filter "whatnot"
	}

These will be optional, as well as the newlines between the options.

I'm intentionally not breaking the grammar; previous configurations will
continue to work as they do today.  I'm just adding a couple of rules to
handle the braces and the optional newlines (which are only valid inside
the braces)

(the example on the manpage didn't really need the braces, but I wanted
to also show them off a bit in the EXAMPLE section.)

thoughs?
