runInTerminal has a special mode 'argsCanBeInterpretedByShell' that is set when extra arguments are being passed to the python script.

This mode causes VS code to run the arguments in the runInTerminal request literally. Normally it quotes the arguments, but in this mode it just runs them as is.

This causes #1980 because spaces are not quoted.

A related PR was submitted to the debugger extension: microsoft/vscode-python-debugger#886. That PR will add the terminalQuoteCharacter that this PR is using to try and set the quote to use around arguments.

Fixes#1980
