Description

Currently Suricata has problems parsing directory names under windows - "windows style"
Ex. - "C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin32\share\misc" in yaml would not be parsed properly , no alarm will be issued.
Suricata will start but would not read/write/create the necessary files under that particular directory.

if the names are specified in yaml without spaces/brackets or other, it will operate correctly.
The same goes if we use windows style directory names for logs/rules etc. in yaml.
