Have quote_args() honour POSIXLY_CORRECT where not exported

In the case that the quote_args() function is called from a shell other
than bash, the POSIXLY_CORRECT variable is only honoured where exported,
which is contrary to the currently specified interface.

Address this issue by ensuring that the POSIXLY_CORRECT variable is
propagated to the environment of shquote.
