     * (a) Use the element as-is (it doesn't contain any special
     * characters).  This is the most desirable option.
     *
     * (b) Enclose the element in braces, but leave the contents alone.
     * This happens if the element contains embedded space, or if it
     * contains characters with special interpretation ($, [, ;, or \),
     * or if it starts with a brace or double-quote, or if there are
     * no characters in the element.
     *
     * (c) Don't enclose the element in braces, but add backslashes to
     * prevent special interpretation of special characters.  This is a
     * last resort used when the argument would normally fall under case
     * (b) but contains unmatched braces.  It also occurs if the last
     * character of the argument is a backslash or if the element contains
     * a backslash followed by newline.
     *
     * The procedure figures out how many bytes will be needed to store
     * the result (actually, it overestimates). It also collects information
     * about the element in the form of a flags word.
     *
     * Note: list elements produced by this procedure and
     * Tcl_ConvertCountedElement must have the property that they can be
     * enclosing in curly braces to make sub-lists.  This means, for
     * example, that we must not leave unmatched curly braces in the
