19  * Escape (by doubling) any single quotes or backslashes in given string
20  *
21  * Note: this is used to process postgresql.conf entries and to quote
22  * string literals in pg_basebackup for writing the recovery configuration.
23  * Since postgresql.conf strings are defined to treat backslashes as escapes,
24  * we have to double backslashes here.
25  *
26  * Since this function is only used for parsing or creating configuration
27  * files, we do not care about encoding considerations.

29  * Returns a malloced() string that it's the responsibility of the caller
30  * to free.
