Use raw literal for string formatting (#46)

When formatting strings, avoid using strconv.Quote if the string looks
like it has already been escaped. Instead, use a raw string literal
by wrapping the string with '`' characters if possible.
For now, we still use strconv.Quote if the input string contains newlines
to maintain the property that Format outputs a single line.

Also, prefix strings obtained by the Stringer.String method with a 's'.
This allows users to more easily distinguish when an output really is
of type string or if the String method was used.
