I am not sure to understand here.  In what is that different from
reverting 2889fd23be56 then mark CopyAttributeOutCSV and
CopyAttributeOutText as static inline?  Or you mean to merge
CopyAttributeOutText and CopyAttributeOutCSV together into a single
inlined function, reducing a bit code readability?  Both routines have
their own roadmap for encoding_embeds_ascii with quoting and escaping,
so keeping them separated looks kinda cleaner here.
