Error output when cd'ing into dev'd folder where path contains & #51

Description

@gaggle

It looks like dev is sensitive to e.g. ampersand in paths, resulting in errornous error-like output:

$ dev --version
dev 1.8.0

$ which node
node not found

$ pwd
/Users/gaggle/Projects/pkgx-pathing-issues

$ cd foo\ \&\ bar/

$ cat package.json 
{
  "type": "module"
}

$ dev

$ which node
/Users/gaggle/.pkgx/nodejs.org/v24.4.0/bin/node

$ cd ..
-nodejs.org

$ cd foo\ \&\ bar/
[6] 49172
[6]  + done       set +a /Users/gaggle/Projects/pkgx-pathing-issues/foo
(eval):64: command not found: bar

$ which node
/Users/gaggle/.pkgx/nodejs.org/v24.4.0/bin/node

This output shows dev continues to work, but the [6] 49172 [6] + done set +a /Users/gaggle/Projects/pkgx-pathing-issues/foo (eval):64: command not found: bar presumably indicates some error somewhere.
