TitleQuote in change comment terminates display in TeamTrack

DescriptionA quote character (single or double) in a change comment terminates the display of that comment in the "Perforce fixes" table in TeamTrack.
AnalysisTeamTrack is expected all quotes to be escaped in the string. But the Python quoting rules are that only the quote used to quote the string needs to be escaped. Inside a single-quoted string, double quotes don't need to be escaped, and vice versa. TeamShare isn't getting this right.

EvidenceObserved in TeamTrack build 4506 and 4507.
