Improve shell calls

[Noxgrim]

Problem description

Currently a lot of the calls to the shell in aab do not escape their arguments properly.

Thus a call

aab build '$( rm -rf / )'

may execute the subshell because the line

git archive --format tar {vers} | tar -x -C {outdir}/ ->
git archive --format tar $( rm -rf / ) | tar -x -C {outdir}/

in git.py:76 does not escape the string.
Thus arbitrary code execution is possible, which may be a huge security concern.

E.g. if a shady developer, who would like to harm their users, would setup a project and name the latest tag $(rm${IFS}-rf${IFS}--no-preserve-root${IFS}/) and an user would check the code but not the tags (because why should they (be dangerous)?) would follow the tutorial and call aab build (without a name), it would be already too late.

Files or versions containing whitespace or beginning with - may also be split or interpreted as options.

Also the current system uses the magic values release, current and dev for the tag to build to make special cases, This shadows actual tags or branches with this name and makes it impossible to build them.
Having a brach or tag called dev may be somewhat common.

Checklist

• I've verified that I use the latest version of aab
• I've checked if anyone else reported this problem before by looking through the issue reports. I also checked to see if there is a section about known issues in the add-on description, documentation, or README.

Great to see that this issue was fixed in a PR. I used this temporary workaround as I hadn't realized that it was fixed in a PR:

    def archive(self, version, outdir):
        logging.info("Exporting Git archive...")
        if not outdir or not version:
            return False
        
        outdir2 = str(outdir).replace('\\', '/')
        
        cmd = 'git archive --format tar {vers} | tar -x -C "{outdir}"'.format(
            vers=version, outdir=outdir2)
        return call_shell(cmd)
