initial word character

 In languages such as Gaelic (gd), when an apostrophe is used as an initial
 word character, it must be a left-curling apostrophe, not a right curling
 one.

 Example:
 {{{'gam}}}

 Should be
 {{{’gam}}}

 But WP currently turns it in
 {{{‘gam}}}


 This is similar to #29813 but in this case this isn't an exception for a
 cockney, but a rule for a language (and probably other languages too).
