Kbuild.include: addtree: Remove quotes before matching path

systemtap currently fails to build modules when the kernel source and
object trees are separate.

systemtap adds something like -I"/usr/share/systemtap/runtime" to
EXTRA_CFLAGS, and addtree should not adjust this as it's specifying an
absolute directory.  But since make has no understanding of shell
quoting, it does anyway.

For a long time this didn't matter, because addtree would still emit
the original -I option after the adjusted one.  However, commit
db547ef19064 ("Kbuild: don't add obj tree in additional includes")
changed it to remove the original -I option.

Remove quotes (both double and single) before matching against the
excluded patterns.
