Disable CommandLineToArgvW-standard quoting for cmd.exe.
libuv assumes spawned processes follow the convention expected by
CommandLineToArgvW(). But cmd.exe is non-conformant, so for cmd.exe:
- With system([]), the caller has full control (and responsibility) to
quote arguments correctly.
- With system(''), shell* options are used.
libuv quoting is disabled if argv[0] is:
- cmd.exe
- cmd
- $COMSPEC resolving to a path with filename cmd.exe

Reasoning is majorly the same: check whether lua has bug or API function has
bug, but on the other side: previous commit is checking whether similar bug when
using API via msgpack RPC, this commit is checking whether another API function
used via lua bindings triggers the same bug. Should additionally give a hint
about which lua code contains a bug.
Lua has too many pitfalls here:
- os.execute() requires shell-escaping
- os.execute() has breaking changes between Lua 5.1 and 5.2
- No native way in Lua to handle "readonly" etc. on Windows
Before this commit it emitted e_spell_trunc in the first case and
treated file as completely valid on the second. While first is fine
(both errors are actually valid, though old error is probably better),
second results in incorrect regex used.
It looks like Neovim has a bug: if `startinsert` is called using `command()`
then `-- TERMINAL --` gets replaced with `-- --` (and also a cursor appears).
Hope this will make people using feed_command less likely: this hides bugs.
Already found at least two:
1. msgpackparse() will show internal error: hash_add() in case of duplicate
keys, though it will still work correctly. Currently silenced.
2. ttimeoutlen was spelled incorrectly, resulting in option not being set when
expected. Test was still functioning somehow though. Currently fixed.
