I think this should start right away with `to_value` and then pass it to a
non-generic private helper taking the `Value`, to avoid multiple
instances, since we need the `Value` anyway, at least for now.

essentially this, but this should also be handling `Object`, and also
`Array` which you're currently not handling at all, since we now support
quoted values which *technically* allow more nesting (even though we
currently don't make use of that).
I'd also *prefer* to avoid the temporary strings by eg. adding 2 more
parameters: `output: &mut String` to avoid all the temporary string
allocations, and `quoting: u32` to know how many times we need to quote
the contents - which you're also not doing at all currently.
(but if that seems too tedious for you now, you can keep going with the
string values for now)

We don't typically put quotes around values unless required by their
contents (if they contain commas, or - if inside an array - semicolons,
so you might need to pass along a list of in-use separators while
recursing through the data).
Note that objects can define a `default_key` which would come first and
not actually write out `key=` before.
This means you also need to walk through the *schema* here, not only the
values.
Also: This definitely needs `#[test]` cases for at least arrays and
objects with simple contents and objects containing simple arrays.
