Description:
mysqldump does not quote database name when run with -Q option

How to repeat:
create database `t1-2`;

mysqldump -Q -A

Suggested fix:
Fix mysqldump.c so it will quote it

Fixed in 4.1, mysqldump version 10.1.

The reason why this was not fixed in 4.0, or earlier is
because 'mysql' -client prior to version 13.0 cannot handle
quoted database names. 13.0 was introduced in 4.1 due to
relative big code change in it.
