gitk: escape file paths before piping to git log

We just started piping the file paths via `stdin` instead of passing
them via the command-line, to avoid running into command-line
limitations.

However, since we now pipe the file paths, we need to take care of
special characters.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2293
