        Quote and concatenate arguments for use in Bourne shell.

        Each argument is quoted separately, and then all are concatenated
        with spaces.  If an argument is an array, the elements of that
        array is interpolated within the rest of the arguments; this makes
        it possible to have an array of arguments and pass that array to
        shellquote() instead of having to specify specify each argument
        individually in the call.
