There is a bug when the tool calls Rust's Cargo Metadata command and there is a space in the path #1467

Description

@HotCakeX

The command I run

. "${Env:RUNNER_TEMP}\sbom-tool.exe" generate -b $MSIXBundleOutput -bc .\ -pn 'AppControl Manager' -ps 'Violet Hansen' -pv $MSIXVersion -nsb 'https://github.com/HotCakeX/Harden-Windows-Security' -V Verbose -gt true -li true -pm true -D true -lto 80

This is one of the workflows where i run that command.

Errors i get which show how the tool is failing when the path contains spaces:
