[issue9723] pipes.quote() needs to be documented

[Matt Joiner]

Matt Joiner <anacrolix at gmail.com> added the comment:

Two reasons: The pipes module is Unix only, but pipes.quote is useful on all platforms. Secondly pipes.quote pertains to shell command-lines, this is also the domain of shlex which already cross platform. In pipes, an import shlex.quote would more than sufficient.

If this belongs in another separate bug I shall submit one. Please advise.
