execution of a pyoxidizer binary fails if importing a file with spaces

[Mark Elliot]

Running the following configuration to build and run scoutsuite==5.13.0 results in a successful build but an un-runnable package:

def make_exe():
    dist = default_python_distribution()
    policy = dist.make_python_packaging_policy()
    policy.resources_location = "filesystem-relative:lib"
    policy.resources_location_fallback = "filesystem-relative:lib"
    python_config = dist.make_python_interpreter_config()
    python_config.run_module = "ScoutSuite"
    exe = dist.to_python_executable(
        name = "scout-oxide",
        packaging_policy = policy,
        config = python_config,
    )
    exe.add_python_resources(exe.pip_install(["scoutsuite==5.13.0"]))
    return exe

At runtime it fails with this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

jaroco.text is trying to load a file from the python path with a space in it.

The maintainer of jaroco.text has made clear that files with spaces in them should be valid and is not willing to remove the space or modify the code that loads the file, and has requested that when encountering tools that don't support files with spaces to file upstream issues. (See 1, 2)

While not a minimal repro, I'm pretty sure this is pyoxidizer running into an issue with files with spaces on the python path.
