Backport PR #17039 to 8.17 branch, original message:

Release notes

Fix logstash-keystore to accept spaces in values when added via stdin

What does this PR do?

logstash-keystore incorrectly handled values containing spaces, causing only the first word to be stored.
For example, a value like "Hello, world!" was split, resulting in "Hello," as the stored value instead of the full string.
This commit preserves spaces in values, ensuring that multi-word strings are stored as intended.

Why is it important/What is the impact to the user?

This issue mainly affected ECK users who followed best practices for managing secure settings, leading to incorrect value assignments.

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: logstash-secure-settings
  namespace: logstash-sample
stringData:
  hello: "Hello, world!"
  bye: "bye"

Users who use stdin to add value are impacted as well. For example, echo "somevalue" | bin/logstash-keystore add hello
