checkpatch: add ability to --fix (coalesce) string fragments on multiple lines

Add --fix option to coalesce string fragments.

This does not coalesce string fragments that have newline terminations or
are otherwise exempted.

Other miscellanea:

o move all the string tests together.
o fix get_quoted_string function for tab characters
o fix concatination typo
