30.0.50; QUOTING_STYLE can break dired |

If the environment variable QUOTING_STYLE is set, GNU "ls" can return a
format that dired doesn't like.
QUOTING_STYLE=shell will quote files with spaces such as 'a b', and
trying to interact with these files with dired results in:
dired-get-file-for-visit: File no longer exists; type g to update Dired buffer
Interestingly, even using "ls --dired" does the same if QUOTING_STYLE is
set.
Should dired handle QUOTING_STYLE (looking at the coreutils manual it
seems that other tools besides ls handle it) or should dired actively
suppress the quoting mode?

Thanks, so I've now installed it on the master branch, and I'm closing
this bug.
