Additional flags for commands from csv and from tsv (#8398)
# Description

Resolves issue #8370

Adds the following flags to commands `from csv` and `from tsv`:
- `--flexible`: allow the number of fields in records to be variable
- `-c --comment`: a comment character to ignore lines starting with it
- `-q --quote`: a quote character to ignore separators in strings,
defaults to '\"'
- `-e --escape`: an escape character for strings containing the quote
character

Internally, the `Value` struct has an additional helper function
`as_char` which converts it to a single `char`

# User-Facing Changes

The single quoted string `'\t'` can no longer be used as a parameter for
the flag `--separator '\t'` as it is interpreted as a two-character
string. One needs to use from now on the flag with a double quoted
string like so: `-s "\t"` which correctly interprets the string as a
single `char`.
