Added support for the non-quoted syntax in Yasm in r1723.  I'm keeping the 
quoted behavior in Yasm (not putting the quotes directly into the section 
name) as it's far more logical and I can't think of a case when it's 
really necessary to have quotes in the section name in the object file. 
Also it maintains backward compatibility.

Thanks,
