brew init fails if there is an app installed with a single quote (') in the title

When attempting to set up using the instructions, I continually received the following error:

I attempted several steps from other issues in this repo, but nothing worked. Further investigation it appears that the get_appstore_dict doesn't account for ' characters in the App title. /Applications/Alto's Adventure The Spirit of the Mountain.app was causing the variable a to truncate early, it seems.

It might be an easy fix, using shlex.quote(a) like so:

    def get_appstore_dict(self) -> dict[str, list[str]]:
        apps: dict[str, list[str]] = {}
        _, apps_tmp = self.helper.proc(
            "mdfind 'kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1'",
            print_cmd=False,
            print_out=False,
        )
        for a in apps_tmp:
            escaped_app_path = shlex.quote(a)
            if not a.endswith(".app"):
                self.log.warning(f"Incorrect app name in mdfind: {escaped_app_path}")
                continue
            if not Path(escaped_app_path).is_dir():
                self.log.warning(f"App doesn't exist: {escaped_app_path}")
                continue
            _, lines = self.helper.proc(
                f"mdls -attr kMDItemAppStoreAdamID -attr kMDItemVersion '{escaped_app_path}'",
                print_cmd=False,
                print_out=False,
            )
            app = {
                x.split("=")[0].strip(): x.split("=")[1].strip() for x in lines
            }
            app_id = app["kMDItemAppStoreAdamID"]
            if app_id != "(null)":
                app_name = escaped_app_path.split("/")[-1].split(".app")[0]
                app_version = app["kMDItemVersion"].strip('"')
                apps[app_name] = [app_id, f"({app_version})"]
        return apps

Error:

I tested by uninstalling Alto's Adventure, and the brew init was able to complete successfully. I then reinstalled the app and re-initialized with those changes and it was able to complete without the error:
