Distinguish between /regexp/ and "regexp" in stringified output #222

Fixes issue #221

ypdn commented 8 months ago

@benhoyt Could you create a new tag so that go get would download it?

Keep in mind that this change breaks code that has an expression like ast.StrExpr{v} in it.

That's okay: 1) the ast package is in internal so it can't be used outside of this repo, and 2) Go package compatibility usually doesn't guarantee that will continue working -- see "struct literals" in https://go.dev/doc/go1compat
