Windows Pageant: quote the pipe path in OpenSSH config fragment.
The pathname of Pageant's named pipe includes the name of the user
running it. And Windows usernames are allowed to have spaces in! So
the pipe pathname may also have a space, in which case Windows OpenSSH
will interpret the spacey pathname as an invalid first half followed
by a trailing garbage word.
A user reports that quoting the filename makes this work. Since double
quotes are an illegal Windows filename character, I think it should
therefore do no harm to quote it unconditionally, which is the easiest
fix.
