mkrc: eval: Syntax error: "(" unexpected on filenames with ( #304

Description

@agentydragon

I'm trying to commit into rcm some files from OrcaSlicer config which contain ( in the filename. I'm getting "/usr/bin/rcup: 1: eval: Syntax error: "(" unexpected runningmkrc *` from the directory.

I think it happens because the dests_and_srcs="$(eval "lsrc $LS_ARGS")" does not properly escape the braces. Shell tries to execute eval my(filename)test and that would trigger spawning a sub-shell to execute filename. Seems like an escaping problem but I'm not sure what's the right way to fix it.

For my use-case I'm luckily able to work around by making the filename not have ('s.
