vim-patch:8.1.2115: MS-Windows: shell commands fail if &shell contains a space
Problem: MS-Windows: shell commands fail if &shell contains a space.
Solution: Use quotes instead of escaping. (closes vim/vim#4920)
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/2efc44b3f0b6bd8307cb281af095e08e15ab1c24
Always double-quote &shell if it contains a space.
Neovim does not support escaping space with backslash, unlike Vim.
N/A patches for version.c:
