Description

When entering a JOLT specification in the JOLT specification window in the JOLT UI, both single and multi line comments are not allowed. This is unlike the 'Jolt Specification' property in the JOLTTransformJSON processor which allows for single and multi line comments which was fixed in NIFI-11959. This makes for an odd situation where there is no error when entering a specification in the 'Jolt Specification' property yet when the JOLT UI is opened and the specification is automatically populated, there is an error due to the comments. In addition, this is unlike the Jolt Transform Demo which allows for both single and multi line comments.

I also noticed that the content window does not support comments where I believe it should.
