Summary:                    $<SHELL_PATH:...> should return a short path on
Windows when containing spaces
Description: 
I am trying to build OpenCV from sources using MSVC and the Ninja Generator and
I have a failing build because of linker flags added to the
target_link_libraries. OpenCV's CMakeLists.txt uses this line of CMake code:

set(OPENCV_LINKER_LIBS ${OPENCV_LINKER_LIBS} -L${p})

OPENCV_LINKER_LIBS is passed to target_link_libraries afterwards. The problem
with this line is that it does not work on Windows with the Ninja generator. I
tried:

set(OPENCV_LINKER_LIBS ${OPENCV_LINKER_LIBS}
${CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH_FLAG}$<SHELL_PATH:${p}>)

but that does not work either because the even though we end up using /LIBPATH:
instead of /L and backslashes instead of forward slashes the path contains
spaces and ninja throws a link error. 

Shouldn't SHELL_PATH return a short path, or a path between quotes when the path
contains spaces on Windows?


Steps to Reproduce: 
Try to build OpenCV 3.1.0 on Windows with Ninja.
