Parse/stringify of keys containing `...`

[f4b1ux]

Short Description
The library correctly parse a document with a key containing ... in it, if placed in single or double quotes. But when you stringify the obtained json, the result is a key containing ... but without quotes, so when you try to parse it again, library returns a "Unexpected scalar at node end at...".
In YAML ... is document stop token (the counterpart to ---).

To Reproduce

const YAML = require('yaml);

const parsed = YAML.parse("'... this is a test': this is the value");
const stringified = YAML.stringify(parsed);
const reparsed = YAML.parse(stringified)

Expected behaviour
Keys containing token such as "..." or "---" should be automatically placed in quotes on stringify.

Versions (please complete the following information):

• Environment: Node 18.12.1
• yaml: 2.2.0

Additional context
A workaround is to specify defaultKeyType option inside stringify options to QUOTE_SINGLE or QUOTE_DOUBLE. This causes that ALL keys will be single (or double) quoted.

I also noticed that using yaml parseDocument instead of parse function works better.

const YAML = require('yaml');

const parsed = YAML.parseDocument("'... this is a test': this is the value");
const stringified = YAML.stringify(parsed);
const reparsed = YAML.parse(stringified);

Confirming this is a bug; this should not fail, but it does:

YAML.parse(YAML.stringify({ '... x': 42 }))

Fix released in v2.2.1.
