Dual-quote arguments passed to su_monkeysphere_user() when possible.dualquote
It is a healthy coding practice to keep each argument separate when
executing system calls, i.e. quote each variable separately instead of
relying on whitespace to indicate argument separation.
Quoting shell-inside-shell is tricky to do right, and gets trickier when
the wrapper demands unusually complex quoting.
su_monkeysphere_user() expands arguments using "$*" which (unlike "$@")
collapses all arguments into a single string, and therefore require
"risky" arguments (e.g. ones containing variables that may contain space
or other unusual characters) to be dual-quoted for them to not wreak
havoc at the inside shell.
This patch improves arguments passed to su_monkeysphere_user() by first
single-quoting and then double-quoting arguments containing variables.
NB! Dynamic arguments are only double-quoted ( "$@" ) which looks safe
but effectively is a noop (quoting is lost at wrapper!).
