### Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, version, and platform. Arrow's CPP CMake currently determines linker version script argument support by assessing the current CMake version, or interrogating the linker via `check_linker_flag`. When using MSVC, `link.exe` will not fail if given an unrecognized argument, so `check_linker_flag` always succeeds, and supplies an invalid argument to the linker. Normally, since the linker doesn't crash on unrecognized arguments, this is fine, just produces some linker stdout noise, however if there's a space in the path to the project root, the linker will crash as it fails to correctly process an unquoted path with a space. ### Component(s) C++ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
