Description:
The patch to fix Bug #17608 ripped out the Field::needs_quote() method on the grounds that it was gross (and in the way). It should be restored

How to repeat:
Look at the queries sent to the remote server for a query like "SELECT a FROM federated_table WHERE a = 1234".

Suggested fix:
Re-implement Field::needs_quote() as a virtual method, and use it in ha_federated.cc.
