Fix handling of backslashes in Args parsing
Summary: Presently Args::SetCommandString allows quotes to be escaped with backslash. However, the backslash itself is not removed from the argument, nor there is a way to escape the backslash itself. This leads to surprising results: "a b" c" -> 'a b', 'c' # Here we actually have an unterminated quote, but that is ignored "a b\" c" -> 'a b\" c' # We try to escape the quote. That works but the backslash is not removed. "a b\\" c" -> 'a b\\" c' # Escaping the backslash has no effect. This change changes quote handling to be more shell-like: - single quotes and backquotes are literal and there is no way to escape the closing quote or anything else inside; - inside double quotes you can use backslash to escape the closing quote and another backslash - outside any quotes, you can use backslash to escape quotes, spaces and itself. This makes the parsing more consistent with what the user is familiar and increases the probability that pasting the command line from shell to the "process launch" command "just work".
