fix: double a quote in a search term, as notmuch expects

SearchTerm::quote() escaped an embedded double quote with a backslash.
notmuch has no backslash escape inside a quoted term: it doubles the
quote, and a backslash-escaped one ENDS the term. Selected text holding
a quote therefore let the rest of the selection reach the query as
syntax. Measured on a throwaway index: under a `tag:nomatch and` scope,
the backslash form of `x " or tag:inbox or id:"` matched every message,
while the doubled form matched none.

quote() now doubles the quote and leaves a backslash alone, since
notmuch reads it literally. Truncation still runs first, so a cut
cannot split a doubled pair.
