[PATCH 5/5] gpg: Fix regexp sanitization.

[Damien Goutte-Gattat]

* g10/trustdb.c (sanitize_regexp): Do not escape normal characters.
--

The current sanitization code escapes ALL characters in the
regular expression, including characters that do not have any
special meaning and only match themselves. Only the dot (.)
is not escaped.

This leads to, e.g., 'example.com' being sanitized into
'\e\x\a\m\p\l\e.\c\o\m', which will then fail to match against
'alice at example.com'.

This patch updates the function to escape only the meaningful
characters (minus the dot).
