[Scheme-reports] inconsistent use of \| escape

Section 6.7 "Strings" lists '\|' as an escape sequence valid in strings.
However, 7.1.1 "Lexical structure" does *not* show '\|' as valid syntax
in <string element> - it does not match <mnemonic escape>.
OTOH <symbol element> explicitly lists '\|'.
I assume the formal syntax is correct, and 6.7 needs some editorial
tweaking.
