Comment(by miqrogroove):

 I guess we need to ask ourselves, what's the difference between these two
 queries?

 SELECT 'hello\'world' LIKE 'hello\'world';

 SELECT 'hello\'world' LIKE 'hello\\\'world';

 If you say there's no difference, then we can safely ignore quotes in
 like_escape().  If you are confused and think this makes no sense, then
 the extra slashes help explain what's going on.
