How to change "ipykernel_launcher" options ?

[velles]

Background:
I am running a project in a Docker via devcontainer on a Mac Silicon.
I see that the ipykernal gets started like this

info 17:39:49.738: Process Execution: > /usr/bin/python3 -m ipykernel_launcher --ip=127.0.0.1 --stdin=9003 --control=9001 --hb=9000 --Session.signature_scheme="hmac-sha256" --Session.key=b"c4456bed-f5e3-40c3-8b87-2955eacfb965" --shell=9002 --transport="tcp" --iopub=9004 --f=/home/ed/.local/share/jupyter/runtime/kernel-v2-243D1JDuf3ETZo0.jso

But later when I run a notebook, I get this error, which I attempted to fix with different package versions with no success.

Observation
My best guess is that this is happening because the ipykernel_launcher is started with quotes and has nothing to do with trailties package. So I would like to start the ipykernel_launcher like this with NO QUOTES

 /usr/bin/python3 -m ipykernel_launcher --ip=127.0.0.1 --stdin=9003 --control=9001 --hb=9000 --Session.signature_scheme=hmac-sha256 --Session.key=b'c4456bed-f5e3-40c3-8b87-2955eacfb965' --shell=9002 --transport="tcp" --iopub=9004 --f=/home/ed/.local/share/jupyter/runtime/kernel-v2-243D1JDuf3ETZo0.jso

if you can see """ are missing for Session.signature_scheme and Session.key
