      Description

      When using paths with surrounding quotes in C++ properties, a second set of surrounding quotes is added when passing command-line arguments to Qt tools like moc.

      For example, setting the Additional Include Directories property to "C:\foo bar";%(AdditionalIncludeDirectories) will result in quotes added to all include paths, even those already containing surrounding quotes:

      "-I"C:\foo bar"" "-ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\include" "-ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\include\QtWidgets" "-ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\include\QtGui" "-ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\include\QtANGLE" "-ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\include\QtCore" "-I/include" "-ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\mkspecs\win32-msvc" "-Ix64\Debug\moc" "-Ix64\Debug\uic"

      The C++ compiler options do not have this issue:

      /Ix64\Debug\uic /Ix64\Debug\moc /I"C:\foo bar" /ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\include /ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\include\QtWidgets /ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\include\QtGui /ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\include\QtANGLE /ID:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\include\QtCore /I/include /I"D:\lib\Qt\5.13.2\msvc2017_64\mkspecs\win32-msvc"
