Settings for forcing/prefering single/double quotes for strings

Just a setting so quoting style can be unified across a codebase.

e.g.

for the three strings abc, a'c, a"c

prefer_single_quotes -> 'abc', "a'c", 'a"c' prefer_double_quotes -> "abc", "a'c", 'a"c'

force_single_quotes -> 'abc', 'a\'c', 'a"c' force_double_quotes -> "abc", "a'c", "a\"c"

Yapf has a philosophy of not changing the source at all, except for whitespace.

You could always format your code with black, then re-format it with yapf. 😉 This would also change some backslashes to parenthesized expressions, I think.

PS: pylint looks for the most common type of quotes and then complains when the other is used (except for cases like "'" and '"' which would otherwise be '\'' or "\"").
