The CSV import currently interprets the field content the same way it does as if
keyed in as input, with the exception of a single apostrophe as field content,
thus forcing otherwise numerical context to textual content, discarding the
leading apostrophe. This should be disabled for CSV import and field content
taken as is.
Btw, it is a common misconception that field content quoted by double quotes
should always be textual content, this is _not_ the case. Double quotes are to
be removed and then it is up to the application to interpret the content.
Otherwise it would be impossible to have numerical values contain the field
separator.
This issue is related to 65510 for the leading apostrophe handling, but doesn't
depend on it in the sense that issue 65510 would block this issue, removing
dependency.
Changing target to 2.x because of desired lossless data import.
