Windows - cli - could not find phantomjs at the specified path

Phantomjs is on the path. Both mermaid and phantomjs are installed globally.

C:\Users\xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>phantomjs
phantomjs> ^CTerminate batch job (Y/N)?
C:\Users\raghuramanr.STC>mermaid

I have encountered something similar when calling mermaid manually with nodejs. It turns out there is a bug in the cli.js file where phantomjs is being called. The error is caused by spaces in the filepath of the phantomjs executable on line 185 in cli.js:
https://github.com/knsv/mermaid/blob/master/lib/cli.js#L185

When putting the path of phantomjs between quotes like this

exec('"' + phantomPath + '" --version', function(err, stdout, stderr) {...}))

phantomjs should be found.

Thanks @JasperTack. This should be an easy fix.
