Fixes #1485
This converts simple quotes (" and ') to typographic quotes (“,”, and ‘’), sometimes know as curly quotes or smart quotes.
It does this using the smartypants library. I tried a few of these, and this one was the only one I could get working consistently as it ignores code formatting and comments.
Still needs a little fudging for our Jinja2 macros (figure markup) but actually quite clean.
I also fixed a lot of captions and descriptions to allow them to be typographic quotes too.
Currently it only handles English punctuation so translations for languages with different punctuation marks still need to convert.
