cargo uitest fails when project path has whitespaces #9874

Summary

calling cargo uitest when rust-clippy's path has whitespaces makes all tests fail. for example, if rust-clippy's path is C:\rust whitespace\rust-clippy, it will emit the following for every test (test_name):

error: multiple input filenames provided (first two filenames are `tests\\ui\\test_name.rs` and `whitespace\\rust-clippy\\target\\debug\\deps` 

(notice the second path is incomplete and begins right after the whitespace in the full path)

putting rust-clippy somewhere with no whitespaces on it's path solves the issue (however, a cargo clean seems to be necessary for it do so, for some reason).

Reproducer

I tried: calling cargo uitest.
I expected to see this happen: tests run correctly.
Instead, this happened: all tests fail with the aforementioned error as their output.
