The chef-server-ctl password command does not accept special characters which can be interpreted by the shell.

Example:

sudo chef-server-ctl password myusername
Enter the new password:  test(123)
Enter the new password again:  test(123)
sh: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
Command failed

The expected behavior is for a password of any length containing any printable character.

Accept passwords with special chars in chef-server-ctl password

chef-server-ctl password delegates to `knife-opc`. In doing so, it was
not escaping special characters in the user supplied data.  Now, it
does.

Fixes #366
