Mark Goddard 196d28e766 Quote and escape extra vars passed to ansible

Arguments passed as extra variables to Ansible require double escaping.
This can be seen when running the following command:

kayobe physical network configure --interface-description-limit 'interface 42'

This gets passed to ansible-playbook as:

['-e', 'physical_network_interface_description_limit=interface 42']

Ansible for some reason loses the 42 from the description. This can be
worked around via quoting:

kayobe physical network configure --interface-description-limit '"interface 42"'

Which results in:

['-e', 'physical_network_interface_description_limit="interface 42"']

This change adds quoting and escaping of variables passed to
ansible-playbook in this way.

Note that this change does not modify any extra variables passed to
kayobe via the -e argument, instead keeping the behaviour of this
argument the same as that of the Ansible -e argument.
