Fixes #776.
The whitespace-delimited argument reader allowed single and double quotes to span input lines. Quotes opened on one line could be closed on a later line, so malformed input was combined into arguments instead of rejected.
Reject a newline while a quote is open, matching GNU and BSD
xargsbehavior. Add regression coverage for both quote types when reading through--arg-file.
