checkpatch: add ability to --fix (coalesce) string fragments on multiple lines
Add --fix option to coalesce string fragments.
This does not coalesce string fragments that have newline terminations or
are otherwise exempted.
Other miscellanea:
o move all the string tests together.
o fix get_quoted_string function for tab characters
o fix concatination typo
