Attempt to fix EXPLAIN (FORMAT YAML) quoting to behave sanely.

The previous code failed to quote in many cases where quoting was necessary -
YAML has loads of special characters, including -:[]{},"'|*& - so quote much
more aggressively, and only refrain from quoting things where it seems fairly
clear that it isn't necessary.

Per report from Dean Rasheed.

+ * needed.  However, some things that need to be quoted in JSON don't require

+ * Unfortunately, the YAML quoting rules are ridiculously complicated -- as

+ * any string which is empty; any string which contains characters other than
+ * alphanumerics, period, underscore, or space; or begins or ends with a
+ * space.  The exception for period is mostly so that floating-point numbers
+ * (e.g., cost values) won't be quoted.
