Currently this is not possible.  I don't know the exact meaning of this
curly quote.  Is it exactly the same as a single quote?  Probably not,
otherwise the character wouldn't exist in Unicode.

A workaround may be to duplicate all words with a single quote and
change them to use a curly quote.  This will only work for the utf-8
spell checker, of course.  And requires adding the curly quote to the
word characters.
