PowerShell 7.3 changed how arguments with embedded quotes are passed
to external programs via the PSNativeCommandArgumentPassing preference.
The triple-quote (""") workaround from the old docs relied on legacy
behavior that no longer applies in pwsh 7.3+.
Update the examples to use backslash-escaped double quotes inside
single quotes, which works across both Windows PowerShell 5.1 and
PowerShell 7.3+. Add a note explaining the version difference.
Fixes clojure#678
