Fix several problems with the recently-added custom variable
help-quote-translation where the code would quote inconsistently
in help buffers. Add support for quoting 'like this', which
is common in other GNU programs in ASCII environments. Change
help-quote-translation to use more mnemonic values: values are now the
initial quoting char, e.g., (setq help-quote-translation ?`) gets the
traditional Emacs help-buffer quoting style `like this'. Change the
default behavior of substitute-command-keys to match what's done in
set-locale-environment, i.e., quote ‘like this’ if displayable,
'like this' otherwise.

doc/misc/texinfo.tex, as upstream hasn't updated that date yet.

Be more systematic about using "@." (not ".") at end of sentence that
ends in a capital letter, and about appending "@:" after non-ends of
sentences that end in a lower case letter followed by "." followed by
whitespace. Omit unnecessary use of "@:" and "@.". Similarly for "?"
and "!". Be more consistent about putting a comma after "i.e." and
"e.g."; this is the typical American style and it's easier to code in
Texinfo.
