Unable to pass strings containing quotes to commands #6154
Description
Describe the bug
Quotes contained in a string disappear, which causes the passed string to be parsed incorrectly by a shell to which the string gets passed internally e.g. ['bash', '-c', 'echo', 'a'] instead of ['bash', '-c', 'echo a'].
How to reproduce
~
nu ❯ "bash -c 'echo a'"
bash -c 'echo a'
~
nu ❯ ^echo "bash -c 'echo a'" # problematic case
bash -c echo a
in bash:
~
bsh ❯ echo "bash -c 'echo a'"
bash -c 'echo a'
Expected behavior
for the commands' output to be the same
