Fixed, partially, on main.
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/commit/?id=89c68683f

The problem was auto-detection of table data - the algorithm used CSV
parser as a fallback and ""1"" is a very peculiar data from the point of
view of CSV spec.

I now changed the code to not try parsing CSV when a single-line data
does not contain commas.

The new behavior is

#+begin_src bash
echo \"\"1\"\"
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
: 1

The nested "..." are stripped on purpose via `org-babel-string-read'.
Although this function dates back to R output processing and I do not
fully understand why stripping nested quotes is useful for all possible
babel backends. But that's a completely different story.
