This non-standard handling for these options was added in [moby@e4c1f07] and [moby@abe32de] to work around a regression in Docker 1.13 that caused `docker-machine` to fail. Preserving quotes in such cases is expected (and standard behavior), but versions of Docker before 1.13 used a custom "mflag" package for flag parsing, and that package contained custom handling for quotes (added in [moby@0e9c40e]). Given that Docker Machine reached EOL a long time ago and other options, such as `docker context`, have been added to configure the CLI to connect to a specific host (with corresponding TLS configuration), we can remove the special handling for these flags, as it's inconsistent with all other flags, and not worth maintaining for a tool that no longer exists.
