Command Prompt (CMD Shell) and older versions of PowerShell
require double quotes and single quotes inside the string.
This form also works on linux and macOS.

I tested revised lines by copy and pasting into Command Prompt. I tested "-form on macOS and other coredevs on linux and Windows-Bash. I checked all hits for 'python -m' in Doc/library, Doc/using/, Doc/tutorial and timeit hits were the only ones needing fixes.

Sorry, @terryjreedy, I could not cleanly backport this to 3.11 due to a conflict.
Please backport using cherry_picker on command line.

The 3.11 merge conflict is because 'python' was 'python3' in 3.11, and changed in 3.12. I am not going to backport.
