Patch to allow spaces within group names in rsyncd.conf

We (at FreeNAS) encountered this bug when one of our users filed this bug:
https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/7950

The gist of the bug is that the user has a group named: " DOMAIN\domain admins"
in his rsync module group which irks the conf file.

Initially I just made the patch and added it to our local copy of the freebsd
ports tree used in our builds, however that is difficult to maintain and thus I
wish to submit that very same patch upstream (i.e. to you guys).

My C is not very good and thus if you find any suboptimal code in my patch, I
apologize in advance and request you to improve on it in ways you find fit.

Either ways it would be very nice to have this work properly.

Please go though path (see attached), I have tested it against the master
branch of the samba rsync git repo: "git://git.samba.org/rsync.git" and can
also submit my commit of that as a push request if there is a way to do that
(see this commit in our local copy of your rsync git repo:
