Issue Description

The Azure Devops plugin for creating the Living Doc does not wrap the path to the Living Doc CLI dll in quotes. If you have a build agent installed on a machine that has spaces in the path, the command fails with the error:

Could not execute because the specified command or file was not found.
Possible reasons for this include:
  * You misspelled a built-in dotnet command.
  * You intended to execute a .NET Core program, but dotnet-C:\Azure does not exist.
  * You intended to run a global tool, but a dotnet-prefixed executable with this name could not be found on the PATH.

Steps to Reproduce

Run the step on a build agent that is installed in a path that has quotes in it. For reference the one we're using that breaks is installed in:

C:\Azure Pipelines Agent

I could reproduce this issue, it will be fixed in the next LivingDoc release.
