Improve how variables are passed through to avoid quoting issues #730

What problem does your feature request solve?

Currently a lot of issues arise from various shells interpreting the variables to be put into the templates. This is confusing, and hard to get right, so should be improved.

Describe the solution you'd like

Ideally nothing between rose edit and CSET should be parsing these values, so we should probably encode them somehow and then send them across directly. Maybe JSON encoding, or something else?

Describe alternatives you've considered

Much pain.
