Review Comment:
I prefer to keep the same form as csv data's `quoting_style`. But I agree
that theses options are easy to misunderstand now. I don't agree to use
`Needed` here. It will cause that `Needed` has two different meanings between
header and data. I think we may need a new option `Minimal` as mentioned in
#42032.
For csv header and binary data:
- `None`: Don't write quotes. Return an error when having structural
characters.
- `Minimal`: Don't write quotes, except having structural characters.
- `Needed` or `AllValid`: Write quotes anyway.
But personally, I think adding a new option for data is a more complicated
thing. I hope that we can handle the header first and I would like to add a new
option and correct header's behavior. Or, using a boolean
`header_quote_all_fields` is also ok for me.
