Michael Vogt 25d3656068 util,test: add test for new shlex based os-release parsing
This commit adds a tiny unit test for the new `shlex` based
os-release parsing and tweaks the error message in a small
and non-functional way (just because it's slightly nicer
for a user). The test checks for three keys NAME which is
quoted with `"`, ID which is not quoted and OSTREE_VERSION
which is quoted with `'`.
