Remove almost all unpaired backticks in docstrings (#119231)
As reported in #117847 and #115366, an unpaired backtick in a docstring tends to confuse e.g. Sphinx running on subclasses of standard library objects, and the typographic style of using a backtick as an opening quote is no longer in favor. Convert almost all uses of the form The variable `foo' should do xyz to The variable 'foo' should do xyz and also fix up miscellaneous other unpaired backticks (extraneous / missing characters). No functional change is intended here other than in human-readable docstrings.
