util.prosodyctl.shell: Allow calling console commands with fewer shell quotes

E.g. `prosodyctl shell module reload disco example.com` becomes
equivalent to `prosodyctl shell 'module:reload("disco", "example.com")`.

Won't work for every possible command, but reduces the amount of shell
quoting problems for most common commands.
