[Suggestion] String serialization

[Igor Levicki]

Please consider serializing strings that contain \ character as string literals (i.e. with single quotes):

FolderPath = 'C:\Path\To\Folder'

Currently they are escaped then serialized with regular double quotes.

Furthermore, if the strings contain newline characters (probably also taking into account Unicode newlines, not just \r and \n), they could be serialized using multi-line literals:

lines = '''
The first newline is
trimmed in raw strings.
All other whitespace
is preserved.
'''

If you want to avoid scanning strings and doing any auto-detection, then having some control over how string values are serialized would be nice.

Thanks for implementing this.
