Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

When a word is prefixed with a quote (" or ') it is ignored for spell checking. for example (using a Posix shell)

vale \\\"Helloxxxx

Does not return a spelling error

vale \"Helloxxxx returns 1:2 error Did you really mean 'Helloxxx'? Vale.Spelling

If this is working as intended then we should update the docs.
