#1693546: don't add quotes around RFC 2231 encoded values.
The RFC is bit hard to understand on this point, but the examples clearly show that parameter values that are encoded according to its charset/language rules don't have surrounding quotes, and the ABNF does not allow for quotes. So when we produce such encoded values, we no longer add quotes.
