DKVPX reader: honor --ifs and --ips instead of hard-coding comma and equals (#2172)
The DKVPX record reader set dkvpxReader.Comma = ',' unconditionally,
ignoring the resolved --ifs value; the key-value separator '=' was
likewise hard-coded in the dkvpx parser, ignoring --ips. So e.g.

  printf 'a=1;b=2\n' | mlr -i dkvpx --ifs semicolon --ojson cat

produced a single field {"a": "1;b=2"} instead of {"a": 1, "b": 2}.

Fixes:

* pkg/dkvpx.Reader gains an Equals field (default '=') alongside Comma.
* The DKVPX record reader now passes the resolved IFS/IPS through,
  validating that each is a single character (mirroring the CSV
  reader's "IFS can only be a single character" error) rather than
  silently ignoring or truncating them.
* The DKVPX record writer already emitted OFS/OPS, but its quoting
  decisions were based on the default separators, so with --ofs
  semicolon a value containing ';' went out unquoted (ambiguous) while
  a value containing ',' was quoted needlessly. Quoting now keys off
  the actual OFS/OPS.

Adds unit tests, regression cases under test/cases/io-dkvpx/, and a
note in the separators reference table.

Discovered while investigating #369; tracked in #2170.
