Description

The current value map implementations (JcrPropertyMap and JrModifiablePropertyMap) try to directly use the provided map key as a property name. If the name contains illegal characters (for a JCR) then setting/getting these properties fails.
Therefore an encoding should be used to avoid these cases.
We'll use the ISO9075 encoding as a start. Adding this encoding should be compatible to the current implementation as it just adds new use cases.
