The correct ‘ and ’ are not considered word boundaries by some(?)
terminal emulators like Alacritty, making double-click selection
tedious. Avoid them in untranslated strings like it's 1992.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (UserLock::acquire)
(DerivationGoal::haveDerivation, DerivationGoal::closureRepaired)
(DerivationGoal::startBuilder, DerivationGoal::runChild)
(DerivationGoal::registerOutputs): Replace ‘’ with `' in output.
* nix/libstore/local-store.cc (canonicalisePathMetaData_)
(LocalStore::queryValidPathId): Likewise.
* nix/libstore/optimise-store.cc (LocalStore::optimisePath_): Likewise.
* nix/libutil/util.cc (readLink): Likewise.

N months later, while Tobias Geerinckx-Rice is asleep, a new patch appears:
Typographically Correct via Guix-patches [...]
> It isn't 1992 anymore; the proper ‘ and ’ quotation marks are now
> well-supported in software. Use the typographically-correct ‘ and ’

FWIW, double-click seems to work well in Emacs, Gnome Terminal.
Instead of working-around bugs, can ‘we’ fix the bug in Alacritty?
Or at least, open a bug report?
Unfortunately, GitHub's TOS and Privacy Policy were ... not great
last time I checked, though I can't find the ‘badness’ anymore except
for some weird section on ‘idemnity’. In any case, there is an #alacritty
channel:
<https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#contact>
Greetings,
Maxime.

Hello,

IMHO the backtick looks ugly when it tries to mimick the opening quote
character. I think the text looks better if both quote characters are
replaced with the straight quote character, e.g. '%1'.
