hgignore.5: remove extra quotes

The so-called "unconstrained quotes" didn't really work, so I reverted
them to normal quotes. Tested with asciidoc version 8.2.7 and 8.4.5.

SYNTAX
------

An ignore file is a plain text file consisting of a list of patterns,
with one pattern per line. Empty lines are skipped. The "``#``" character
is treated as a comment character, and the "``\``" character is treated as
an escape character.

Mercurial supports several pattern syntaxes. The default syntax used
is Python/Perl-style regular expressions.

The chosen syntax stays in effect when parsing all patterns that
follow, until another syntax is selected.

Neither glob nor regexp patterns are rooted. A glob-syntax pattern of
the form "``*.c``" will match a file ending in "``.c``" in any directory, and
a regexp pattern of the form "``\.c$``" will do the same. To root a regexp
pattern, start it with "``^``".
