## Unescaped variables in pkgconfig files
Spaces in variable values are escaped with `\`, this is required in the case the
value is a path that and is used in `cflags` or `libs` arguments. This was an
undocumented behaviour that caused issues in the case the variable is a space
separated list of items.
For backward compatibility reasons this behaviour could not be changed, new
keyword arguments have thus been added: `unescaped_variables` and
`unescaped_uninstalled_variables`.
```meson
pkg = import('pkgconfig')
...
pkg.generate(lib,
variables: {
'mypath': '/path/with spaces/are/escaped',
},
unescaped_variables: {
'mylist': 'Hello World Is Not Escaped',
},
)
```
