Description

Consider a node serialized as

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jcr:root xmlns:sling="http://sling.apache.org/jcr/sling/1.0" xmlns:jcr="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/1.0"
    jcr:primaryType="sling:OsgiConfig"
    org.apache.sling.commons.log.file="logs/missing.log"
    org.apache.sling.commons.log.level="info"
    org.apache.sling.commons.log.names="[org.apache.sling.missing]"
    org.apache.sling.commons.log.pattern="\{0,date,dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm:ss.SSS} *{4}* [{2}] {3} {5}"/>

The value of the org.apache.sling.commons.log.pattern escapes the leading brace since it would be interpreted as a property hint. However, we don't unescape it when writing to the repo so the leading backslash is also sent, which is incorrect.
