From bd482d6e3348fe369b3b1db2dadbca278a0f0025 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Denton Liu <liu.denton@gmail.com>
Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2019 15:10:05 -0700
Subject: t: use common $SQ variable

In many test scripts, there are bespoke definitions of the single quote
that are some variation of this:

    SQ="'"

Define a common $SQ variable in test-lib.sh and replace all usages of
these bespoke variables with the common one.

This change was done by running `git grep =\"\'\" t/` and
`git grep =\\\\\'` and manually changing the resulting definitions and
corresponding usages.
