[Bug gjdoc/25704] New: gjdoc.sh can't handle arguments with single quotes

[david at jpackage dot org]

This is actually a larger problem in that gjdoc.sh can't properly quote
arguments passed to the shell.

For example, if one specifies in a build.xml file

<javadoc ...>
  <doctitle>
    <![CDATA[javadoc's "test"]]>
  </doctitle>
</javadoc>

The shell will fail to parse this at the ' character.

The offending line of gjdoc.sh seems to be

gjdocparams="$gjdocparams '$i'"

as we now have an unescaped ' inside two single quotes.

Switching this to double quotes reverses the situation.

I am not sure if using "$@" directly would fix the problem, but it is clear
that this can't be done, as munging must occur for the -J option.
