chef_user fails if first or last name has too many spaces

[kenmacleod]

There are no quotes around the first_name and last_name in this line:

chef-ingredient/resources/chef_user.rb

Line 50 in 8d06f5e

command "chef-server-ctl user-create #{new_resource.username} #{new_resource.first_name} #{new_resource.last_name} #{new_resource.email} #{password} -f #{key}"

If first or last name happens to have two names, user-create will pick up the extra argument as a middle name (ooh, neat hidden feature! :) :( ).

But if there are more than one extra "name", like first name "My Admin User", last name "Vault_Item_Admin", user-create fails with a too many arguments error.
