I'm saying that the comments in OUTPUTFORMATTER::Quoted say that any
string which has internal quotes will also be wrapped in quotes later
in this function. If my string (in this case outputDirectory) is AB"CD
it is going on disk as AB""CD. Based on the comment I think it should
be "AB""CD". Anyways, if it is on disk as AB""CD it comes back as
AB""CD. If it is on disk as "AB""CD" it comes back as AB"CD. If that
is how things are supposed to work, I can strip the extra "'s in
PCB_PLOT_PARAMS_PARSER.
