The original implementation of matching was a RegExp on the source
which wasn't able to reliably distinguish between comments inside
of string literals and actual comments. For that reason, it had
a special rule to disallow quotes to remove false positives.
Original comment:
> Also, ['"] are excluded from allowed URLs to avoid matches
> against sources that invoke evals with sourceURL.
After the code was moved into the scanner, that shouldn't be an
issue anymore - the scanner knows that this is a real comment and
isn't part of a string literal.
Allowing quotes enables a slightly smaller encoding of source maps,
specifically in the case where there are no sourceContents:
Non-base64 source maps can get away with effectively no encoding
overhead (they typically don't contain whitespace).
