fix: improve dollar quote handling and identifier quoting in pretty printer

- Use dollar quotes for function/procedure bodies instead of single quotes
- Add DollarQuoteHint enum to select context-appropriate delimiters
  ($function$ for functions, $procedure$ for procedures, $do$ for DO blocks)
- Handle nested dollar quotes by falling back to alternative delimiters
- Use emit_identifier_maybe_quoted for identifiers that don't need quoting
  (lowercase names without special characters or reserved keywords)
- Add tests for dollar quoted functions, nested dollar quotes, and
  lowercase/quoted table identifiers
