Description

If the absolute path name of the -f command line parameter contains round bracket characters "(" or ")", then the command line mvn.cmd fails with "... was unexpected at this time".

The issue can be easily fixed in mvn.cmd, 3.5.2 for he appropriate echo statements:
line 120: enclose %FILE_ARGS% by "" -> "%FILE_ARGS%"
line 129: same for %POM_DIR% and %FILE_ARGS%

The screenshots attached have been created with env var MAVEN_BATCH_ECHO=on.
