The path must also be quoted if it begins or ends with a double-quote, right?

Also, would people want to be able to pass a pathname from the output
of e.g. `git ls-files -o`, which may quote additional characters?

Should we use unquote_c_style() here instead of rolling another parser
to do unquoting?  That would have the added benefit of allowing people
to use filenames from the output of various git commands that do
special quoting -- such as octal sequences for non-ascii characters.
