The @help macro does not show the docstrings for macros

[piechologist]

Example: @help @info displays just "#= =#" in the pager, not the docstring for @info.

I could track the issue down to the macro help(f) definition in helpers.jl, line 24. When calling @help @info in the REPL, the variable f_str is set to something like #= REPL[21]:1 =# @info.

I tried

local f_str = chopprefix(string(f), r"#= .+ =# ")

which is not elegant but it works fine.

I could make a PR for that or maybe you have a better solution?
