* lisp/textmodes/sgml-mode.el (sgml-specials): Add single quote.
(sgml-syntax-propertize-rules): Handle single quote.
* test/lisp/nxml/nxml-mode-tests.el (nxml-mode-font-lock-quotes): New
test.
* test/lisp/textmodes/sgml-mode-tests.el
(sgml-delete-tag-bug-8203-should-not-delete-apostrophe): Now passes.

 This list is used when first loading the `sgml-mode' library.

-DTDs, start a string.  To partially avoid this problem this also makes these
