#29256: Strings ending with a number and quotation mark get wrong smart quotes

 When a string ends in a number followed by a single or double quote, such
 as `"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet 1234"` or `'Etiam eu egestas dui 1234'`
 wptexturize incorrectly converts the trailing single or double quote into
 a single or double prime, respectively.

 Related to #8775, but the scope of that ticket seems to be limited to
 numbers inside of quotes, not a number preceded by other text (crudely
 described as`\d+` vs `.*\d+`).

 This is still an issue in trunk on .org and on wordpress.com (Example:

 downloaded-5-million-times-but-still-isnt-top-hit-for-pirates/)
