Fix transform() corrupting TRUE/FALSE/NULL column defaults

quote_default_value() passed keyword-literal defaults (TRUE, FALSE, NULL)
through self.quote(), wrapping them in quotes. So transform() rebuilt a
column declared "INTEGER DEFAULT TRUE" as "INTEGER DEFAULT 'TRUE'", and a
later default insert stored the text 'TRUE' instead of the integer 1
(likewise 'FALSE' for 0 and 'NULL' for null) - silent value corruption.

Return these keyword literals unquoted, as already done for the
CURRENT_TIME/DATE/TIMESTAMP literals.
