Error at SET if space in key or value #65

Description

@tripower

Hello

we get the following ERROR if a space is in the key or value of the set method
ProcessUncleanExitError: ADD command exited with code 1:
FEHLER: Ungültige Syntax.
Geben Sie "REG ADD /?" ein, um die Syntax anzuzeigen.

method call:
key.set("URL Protocol", WinReg.REG_SZ, '', (err)=> {
});

or

key2.set(WinReg.DEFAULT_VALUE, WinReg.REG_SZ, '"ExeFileFolder\ExeFileName" "--deeplink=%1"', (err)=> {
});

Info:
it works on CMD
`
C:>reg add HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\testKB /v "URL Protocol" /t REG_SZ /d "" /f
Der Vorgang wurde erfolgreich beendet.

C:>reg query HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\testKB /v "URL Protocol"
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\testKB
URL Protocol REG_SZ
`

update 1:
key.set("\"URL Protocol\"",..
results in exteme cpu usage and forever running thread

update 2:
version 1.2.4 works!!! (with pure NodeJS and in my electron v18 app)
version 1.2.5 also NOT ok if I took the set method from 1.2.4 (very strange)
so I do not close the issue because 1.2.5 should also work
