scripts/spdxcheck.py: Handle special quotation mark comments

The SuperH boot code files use a magic format for the SPDX identifier
comment:

  LIST "SPDX-License-Identifier: .... "

The trailing quotation mark is not stripped before the token parser is
invoked and causes the scan to fail. Handle it gracefully.

Fixes: 6a0abce4c4cc ("sh: include: convert to SPDX identifiers")
