Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Apply cwd to bash kernel contexts
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The change_current_directory handler in the template server only had
branches for python, javascript/typescript, r, and java — bash fell
through to the no-op else, so a context created with a non-default cwd
still returned `/` from `pwd`. Added a bash branch that sends `cd <path>`
and added bash cwd tests across sync/async python and js suites.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Quote path in bash cd snippet

Matches the quoting used in the js, r, and java branches so paths
containing spaces or shell metacharacters cd to the intended directory.
