Thanks for the excellent library, it's very nice to use!

I've been building some in memory search functionality for a data annotation tool i'm making, and I got tripped up a little bit with escaping the full text search queries. First I tried using `db.quote(q)`, which doesn't work, because sqlite FTS has it's own (separate)[ query syntax](https://www2.sqlite.org/fts5.html#full_text_query_syntax). You can see this happening here also:

http://search-24ways.herokuapp.com/24ways-f8f455f/articles?_search=acces%2A

I got around this by aggressively escaping quotes inside the query string like this:

```python
        quoted = q.replace('""', '""""')
        quoted = f'""{quoted}""'
        print(quoted)
        results = db[""data""].search(quoted, columns=[""id""])
        return [x[""id""] for x in results]

```

This works in the sense it doesn't crash, but it also removes access to the search query syntax. Given the well specified definition, it might be possible for sqlite-utils to provide a `db.quote_query(q)` which would intelligently escape a query whilst leaving the syntax intact. This would be very nice!

The json and CSV links on this page don't behave like expected: https://honeypot-brimston3.vercel.app/honeypot?sql=select+time%2C+count%28time%29+as+count+from+%28select+strftime%28%22%25Y-%25m-%25d%22%2C+_etime%29+as+time+from+ssh+%29+group+by+time+order+by+time%3B

I can take a swing at trying to fix this, but my python isn't strong and I need a pointer at the right approach and files to change.
