Created attachment 57622
  --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=57622
Updated patch which completely implements start's title detection and parsing,
but does not handle switch chaining.

I have created a new patch which should completely fix this problem. It employs
the exact same parsing behaviour as start does on Windows when it comes to
processing the console title. This also means that spaces in the title are now
no longer a problem.

start does have the behaviour of treating slashes as argument separators, thus:

> start "hello"/i

is valid and will treat /i as a switch and not part of the console title.

This chained switches behaviour is however not implemented by both cmd and
start.exe as of yet. My point of this patch was however to get the start
built-in to correctly detect the console title and handle it as such, which it
now should.

I'll soon take the necessary steps to get the patch submitted to wine.
