Fix some single quotes in documentation

Browse source 
* doc/emacs/anti.texi (Antinews): Avoid confusion in info and PDF
when documenting quoting styles.
* etc/NEWS, nextstep/README: In these plain text files, quote
'like this' consistently, rather than also (sometimes) ‘like this’
or (more often) `like this'.

@kbd{C-h b} output. The @code{electric-quote-mode} has been deleted,
so there's only the one true quoting method now---using the
plain-@acronym{ASCII} quote characters. And if that's not enough, the
doc strings and other messages show text quoted `like this' and "like
this" as they were written, instead of arbitrarily replacing them
with Unicode ``curved quote'' characters. The

as they were written, instead of arbitrarily replacing them
with Unicode ``curved quote'' characters @t{‘like this’}. The
@code{text-quoting-style} variable becomes therefore unneeded and was
removed. As result, text produced by Emacs can be sent to those
venerable teletypes again, yeah!
