Language syntax VB: backslash is not an escape character

[pablonete]

monaco-editor version: 0.20.0
Browser: Chrome
OS: Windows
Playground code that reproduces the issue:

Open https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/
Select Language vb

Print "Hola" & "\" & Name
' This line should be green. \ is not an escape in VB.

The backslash is not an escape character, so ending quote should be considered.
