Windows escaping is broken since the last merges.
After digging more on Windows escaping, I realised some things:
- We forbid environment variable expansion by escaping `%APPDATA%` to `^%"APPDATA"^%`
- We explicitly ask for variable expansion at runtime (running the command line with the [`/V:ON`](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/blob/2.3/src/Symfony/Component/Process/Process.php#L235) flag). Running a command containing `!APPDATA!` will be escaped and expanded (our previous rule is easily overriden)
- On platform that are not windows, we use strong escaping that prevents any variable expansion (`$PATH` will be escaped to `'$PATH'` that is not interpreted as the current PATH)
We have three possibilities:
- Keep this behavior as this.
- Prefer a consistent API and use a strong escaping strategy everywhere, but it would result in a BC break (see #8975).
- Allow environment variable expansion and escape `%APPDATA%` to `"%APPDATA%"`
Any thoughts about this ?
