A path containing a space must be quoted when used as an argument to
either the copy or rename commands. 6280dfdc3b (fast-export: quote paths
in output, 2011-08-05) previously attempted to fix fast-export's quoting
by passing all paths through quote_c_style(). However, that function does
not consider the space to be a character which requires quoting, so let's
special-case the space inside print_path(). This will cause
space-containing paths to also be quoted in other commands where such
quoting is not strictly necessary, but it does not hurt to do so.

Sorry, not test added. I barely had time to get out this patch. :-(
Thanks.

I have to say it might be less error prone to always c-quote the
string, as the recipient is expected to be able to grok it anyway,
but I'll let fast-import/export experts to comment on it and perhaps
add a test or two ;-)
