Summary
This PR fixes path handling for installations on Windows paths containing spaces and introduces an isolated
test-envworkflow for local development and testing.Path handling fix (spaces)
NVM_HOME,NVM_SYMLINK, and related paths when they contain spaces (for example underC:\Users\Some User\...).nvm use, and symlink updates work reliably on typical user directories.nvm.execould not be found/executed solely due to unquoted paths with spaces.This makes nvm-windows robust in more realistic setups where the repo, NVM root, or Node target directories live under user profiles or other spaced paths.
