gpgme does not handle backslashes in file names correctly.

Description

In particular UNC (\\SERVER\FILE) style names are problematic in 1.23. As soon as direct passing of filenames to gpg is enabled, the extra quoting done in w32-io.c and gpgme-w32spawn.c is misbehaving. Probably due to the double quotes usage in UNC.

Instead of fixing these nasty double-backslash things and risking other breaks of quoting (again), we should pass forward slashes to gpg. This is well defined for Windows just a bit uncommon for Windows-only users.
