A few tests

Test of `single' and ``double'' smart quoting for legacy topics.

Test of ‘single’ and “double” smart quoting for regular old entities.

Test of `single' and ``double'' quotes in a <tt> tag and in a <code> tag:

`single' and ``double''

Test of `single' and ``double'' quotes in inline preprocessor stuff, and in preprocessor blocks here:

`single' and ``double'' quotes !

Test of primes in math: foo' and

foo'

That should probably about do it.
