Preferably reviewed by someone with a little nmake experience.

This fixes a bug which causes visual studio to throw errors when trying to build hotspot.

make/windows/projectfiles/common/Make sets up some options that is passed as a string to ProjectCreator.java. That string gets unmatched pairs of escaped quotation marks around the hotspot release version. After closer examination that happens when a number of vars and escaped quotation marks are appended together on a multi line string append.

This fixes removes unnecessary (and potentially bad) quotation marks, simplifies the option creation and creates the options with escaping characters on the same line.
