AMI: Escape string values.
So this issue is a bit complicated. Since it is possible to pass values to AMI
that contain a '\r\n' (or other similar sequences) these values need to be
escaped. One way to solve this is to escape the values and then pass the escaped
values to the AMI variable parameter string building function. However, this
puts the onus on the pre-build function to escape all string values. This
potentially requires a fair amount of changes along with a lot of string
allocations/freeing for all values.
Surely there is a way to push this complexity down a level into the string
building function itself? This of course is possible, but ends up requiring a
way to distinguish between strings that need to be escaped and those that don't.
The best way to handle this is by introducing a new format specifier in the
format string. For instance a %s (no escape) and %S (escape). However, that is
a bit weird and unexpected.
So faced with those possibilities this patch implements a limited version of the
first option. Instead of attempting to escape all string values this patch only
escapes those values that make sense. This approach limits the number of changes
and doesn't suffer from the odd format specifier problem.
