Summary: Attribute "locfile" of NAntTasks's LightTask needs quoting

Initial Comment:
I've found a bug in the LightTask of the WiX NAntTasks.
If you specify a "locfile" attribute in a LightTask and
set the value to a path containing spaces the build
will fail. This happens because the value of the
"locfile" attribute is injected wrongly into the
light.exe command-line. So if you specify the following
in your NAnt build file (only relevant portions included):

<light ... locfile="My Project\test.wxl" ... />

it will translate to:

light.exe -loc My Project\test.wxl ...

This will ofcourse fail, because "My Project" contains
a space character and Light will see "My" and
"Project\test.wxl" as two separate parameters. The -loc
value has to be quoted, like this:

light.exe -loc "My Project\test.wxl" ...

The solution is a minor change in "LightTask.cs". In
the WriteOptions() method the line:

writer.WriteLine("-loc {0}", this.LocFile);

has to be replaced by:

writer.WriteLine("-loc \"{0}\"", this.LocFile);
