util: Filter control characters out of log messages

Belts and suspenders: make sure outgoing log messages don't contain
potentially suspicious characters, such as terminal control codes.

This escapes control characters except newline ('\n') in C syntax.
It escapes instead of removes them to still allow for troubleshooting
issues where they accidentally end up in strings.
