Add explicit arg for enclosing resource path in quotes

[SteveL-MSFT]

PR Summary

If a PowerShell resource is in a folder that has spaces (like OneDrive), then the code flow:

sequenceDiagram
    dsc->>pwsh: pwsh -c powershell.resource.ps1 --resourcePath "c:\users\test\OneDrive - Test\resource.psm1"
    pwsh->>script: powershell.resource.ps1 --resourcePath c:\users\tests\OneDrive - Test\resource.psm1

dsc sends the path with quotes to pwsh, but when pwsh receives it, the correct value is sent, but the quotes have been stripped. So when pwsh sends the path to powershell.resource.ps1 the lack of quotes means it thinks they are positional parameters and fails.

The fix is to introduce a new optional property for:

{
  "resourcePathArg": "--foo",
  "includeQuotes": true
}

This will add additional quotes:

sequenceDiagram
    dsc->>pwsh: pwsh -c powershell.resource.ps1 --resourcePath "\"c:\users\test\OneDrive - Test\resource.psm1\""
    pwsh->>script: powershell.resource.ps1 --resourcePath "c:\users\tests\OneDrive - Test\resource.psm1"

So when the outer quotes are stripped, the inner quotes remain and get passed correctly to powershell.resource.ps1.

The test verifies that the correct escaped inner quotes are sent to the resource process.

• Extends manifest argument models with includeQuotes.
• Applies quote-wrapping when processing resource path args.
• Enables the option for the PowerShell adapter and adds a dsctest coverage scenario.
