New issue 350: run query requires quotes around query when not necessary
https://bitbucket.org/blais/beancount/issues/350/run-query-requires-quotes-around-query
Martin Michlmayr:
I have to quote the query name, otherwise I get a syntax error. I think in both of these cases (dash and underscore) there shouldn't be a need to quote the name.
```
bean-query Financial/Ledger/books.beancount "run fundraiser_2017"
ERROR: Syntax error near '2017' (at 15)
run fundraiser_2017
^
bean-query Financial/Ledger/books.beancount "run fundraiser-2017"
ERROR: Syntax error near '-2017' (at 14)
run fundraiser-2017
^
```
