Only to be precise,

from (MWE):
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\begin{document}
\textquotesingle
'
`
"
\end{document}


you get:

'
’
‘
"


In the event one decides to modify unicode.4hf, I would suggest to
modify in order to get the following (attaching the file modified):

'
’
‘
"



(I'm not suggesting to modify anything :-)
