Subject: [ruby-core:72231] [Ruby trunk - Feature #11839] [Open] CSV:	liberal_parsing option

Issue #11839 has been reported by Braden Anderson.

----------------------------------------
Feature #11839: CSV: liberal_parsing option
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11839

* Author: Braden Anderson
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
----------------------------------------
I've submitted a pull request, https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/1160 , which adds a liberal_parsing option to the CSV module, off by default. This allows for parsing of some invalid input, like unescaped quotes in the middle of a field, which can be unambiguously interpreted.

I discussed it briefly with JEG2, and he asked me to bring it up here in case anyone here objects. I've attached the patch.

Thank you for your consideration.
