Inside a JavaScript string, text like "$$props" is ordinary string content, not a reference to the legacy $$props variable. This removes the string-content override that stripped string scope from it. Bare identifiers keep their variable.language.dollar.js scope.

Addresses finding 6 of the syntax audit (legacy special variables incorrectly interpolated inside string literals).

Syntax tests updated and passing on ST builds 4143 and latest.
