all: quote string arguments in error messages
These strings are often file names or other user specified parameters, which can give confusing errors in the presence of unexpected characters for example. * cfg.mk (sc_error_quotes): A new syntax check rule. * src/*.c: Wrap error() string arguments with quote(). * tests/: Adjust accordingly. * NEWS: Mention the improvement.
