Eshell variable expansion should always return strings inside quotes

This is closer in behavior to regular shells, and gives Eshell users
greater flexibility in how variables are expanded.

* lisp/eshell/esh-util.el (eshell-convert): Add TO-STRING argument.

* lisp/eshell/esh-var.el (eshell-parse-variable-ref): Add MODIFIER-P
argument and adjust how 'eshell-convert' and 'eshell-apply-indices'
are called.
(eshell-get-variable, eshell-apply-indices): Add QUOTED argument.

* test/lisp/eshell/esh-var-tests.el (eshell-test-value): New defvar.
