[Bug libfortran/33253] New: namelist: reading back a string with apostrophe

["tkoenig at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Reading back a namelist string which contains an
apostrophe doesn't work.

I am marking this as an enhancement because reading back
what we wrote with a namelist isn't guaranteed to work
(see note 10.37 in the working draft).  It does work with
ifort, for example.

$ cat namelist.f90 
program main
  implicit none
  character(len=3) :: a
  namelist /foo/ a
  open(10,status="scratch")
  a = "a'a"
  write(10,foo) 
  write (*,foo)
  rewind 10
  read (10,foo)
end program main
$ gfortran namelist.f90 
$ ./a.out
&FOO
 A=a'a,  /

At line 10 of file namelist.f90 (unit = 10, file = '/tmp/gfortrantmpy3HLPb')
Fortran runtime error: Cannot match namelist object name a'a,
