Removed server default quoting from compare

Don't modify the metadata server default when comparing it in the
autogenerate process.
This impacts the value passes to user provided functions passed in
:paramref:`.EnvironmentContext.configure.compare_server_default`
and third party dialect that implement a custom ``compare_server_default``.

Fixes: #1178
