Remove quotes for shell scripts #79

I'm very excited to find a great tool that I can use in this shell script right now.

When I use this tool in a shell script to reference a value, I have to use sed to manually remove the quotes.
I want an option to remove quotes, like the -r option of the jq command.

quotes are unusual in ini values, since they're redundant.
You might use the shell to parse with something like:

eval variable=$(crudini --get file.ini section parameter)

Now $variable will have the unquoted value.

Perhaps we can add an option.
Perhaps like jq -r, we could assume the values were json, and use that to unquote
