Summary

This PR fixes shell quotation issues where SSH arguments were not properly passed to intended commands if they contain space(s).

In the following example, a user connects to server2 whose connection is required to be established against a proxy (server1).

get_host_info (pexpect)

Current Behaviour

Command # Argument
bash 1 -c
bash 2 echo -e "..." | ssh -v -o ProxyCommand=ssh -W %h:%p server1 server2 -T "bash -s"
Command # Argument
ssh 1 -v
ssh 2 -o
ssh 3 ProxyCommand=ssh
ssh 4 -W
ssh 5 %h:%p
ssh 6 server1
ssh 7 server2
ssh 8 -T
ssh 9 bash -s

Expected Behaviour

Command # Argument
bash 1 -c
bash 2 echo -e "..." | ssh -v "-o" "ProxyCommand=ssh -W %h:%p server1" server2 -T "bash -s"
Command # Argument
ssh 1 -v
ssh 2 -o
ssh 3 ProxyCommand=ssh -W %h:%p server1
ssh 4 server2
ssh 5 -T
ssh 6 bash -s
