195 * Description:
196 * The function unquotes characters in the given string.
198 * Because the size of the output will be the same as or less than the size of
199 * the input, the transformation may be performed in place.
201 * Caller must provide valid source and destination pointers. Be aware that
202 * destination buffer will always be NULL-terminated. Source string must be
203 * NULL-terminated as well.
205 * Return:
206 * The amount of the characters processed to the destination buffer excluding
207 * trailing '\0' is returned.
