Processing: GRASS commands not escaped correctly

Description

A simple GRASS command, e.g.

processing.runalg("grass7:v.clean","/home/paolo/Aree_Elementari.shp",2,0.1,"955403.9934,1054537.9351,4596890.3389,4678902.6515",-1,0.0001,None,None)

results in:

v.in.ogr min_area=0.0001 snap=-1 input="/home/paolo/" layer=Aree Elementari output=tmp14851690580813 --overwrite -o

instead of:

v.in.ogr min_area=0.0001 snap=-1 input="/home/paolo/" layer="Aree Elementari" output=tmp14851690580813 --overwrite -o

(the space in filename is not escaped) and as a consequence the command fails with:

ERROR: Sorry is not a valid option

If is regression is a severe, not high issue.

Anyway I cannot replicate (2.18.3, grass72), so please add

1) sample data
2) exact steps on how replicate

Giovanni, i guess it will happen when you use any layer with blank spaces in its name as input

Should be easy to fix, i will work on it

Hi Victor,
yes it seems to happen when input layer name has spaces. But the above example does not have spaces in the input file name

processing.runalg("grass7:v.clean","/home/paolo/Aree_Elementari.shp",2,0.1,"955403.9934,1054537.9351,4596890.3389,4678902.6515",-1,0.0001,None,None)

and in another test using an input with underscores this are not replaced by spaces (as the above example would suggest).
