I bet this won't compile on win32.

Instead of this (IMHO doomed) escape approach, maybe the filename
parameter could be specified as the next argument, for example:
-hda format=qcow2,blah,blah,filename_is_next_arg -hda "filename with
funky characters like ',' ':' & '!'"

-drive name=hda,if=ide,cache=off -hda foo.img
-drive name=vda,if=virtio,cache=writeback -vda foo.img
-drive name=sdb,if=scsi,unit=1 -sdb boo.img

But Paul has long objected to having -vda or -sda syntaxes. I do agree though that the most sane thing to do is to make the filename an independent argument.
