...to not require a `<lexer>`, for ease of testing.
Renamed the #"sharp-quote" states to #"sharp-double-quote" to avoid confusion with the single-quote states, which are just referred to as "quote".
Implements part of DEP 12, multi-line but not raw string literals. https://opendylan.org/proposals/dep-0012-string-literals.html
This is consistent with having both "x" and """x""" syntax for strings, and since Newline is already accepted with `#"a\nb"` why not allow multi-line syntax for quoted symbols (a.k.a. unique strings).
