    Fix testsuite errors due to shell quoted parameter expansion issue.
    
    * tests/getopt-m4sh.at (_LT_AT_GETOPT_M4SH_SETUP): Insert space
    between double-quoted and unquoted shell parameter, as bash
    4.0.28 doesn't add one in its output if the expansion of the
    second one starts with a space.
    (short option splitting, enhanced shell short option splitting)
    (long option splitting, XSI long option splitting): Add space in
    expected output.
    Fixes testsuite failures on AIX, FreeBSD, etc.
