[BUG] org-agenda-skip fails in batch mode because comment-start-skip is nil

[Asilata Bapat <asilata@gmail.com>]

When org-scan-tags runs in a batch mode invocation, the value of the variable comment-start-skip is nil even while scanning an org file. The function org-scan-tags calls (org-agenda-skip), which in turn calls (looking-at comment-start-skip). Since the value of comment-start-skip is nil, it triggers the error (wrong-type-argument stringp nil).
To fix this, the function org-agenda-skip should ensure that the variable comment-start-skip is set to the appropriate value.

Two comments:
1. The issue was not present in Org version 9.4.4. The issue comes up when I build my webpage using Emacs 28.1 and Org 9.5.2, but not when I build it using Emacs 27.2 and Org 9.4.4.
2. The issue can indeed be fixed, e.g., by changing the source of org-agenda-skip to invoke (org-mode) immediately before the let statement. Doing this presumably sets the variable comment-start-skip to the expected value, and the invocation succeeds.
