remote-curl: unquote incoming push-options
The transport-helper protocol c-style quotes the value of any options passed to the helper via the "option <key> <value>" directive. However, remote-curl doesn't actually unquote the push-option values, meaning that we will send the quoted version to the other side (whereas git-over-ssh would send the raw value). The pack-protocol.txt documentation defines the push-options as a series of VCHARs, which excludes most characters that would need quoting. But: 1. You can still see the bug with a valid push-option that starts with a double-quote (since that triggers quoting). 2. We do currently handle any non-NUL characters correctly in git-over-ssh. So even though the spec does not say that we need to handle most quoted characters, it's nice if our behavior is consistent between protocols. There are two new tests: the "direct" one shows that this already works in the non-http case, and the http one covers this bugfix.
