Description

foreman-installer fails when --katello-candlepin-db-ssl true and --katello-candlepin-db-ssl-verify false are set

It seems that we need to escape the ampersand in cpdb's --database parameter

Steps to reproduce:
1. create postgres users and databases on remote host for candlepin and foreman
2. # foreman-installer --scenario katello --foreman-db-manage false --foreman-db-host dbhost.redhat.com --foreman-db-database foreman5db --foreman-db-username foreman5 --foreman-db-password foreman5pw --foreman-db-port 5432 --katello-candlepin-manage-db false --katello-candlepin-db-host dbhost.redhat.com --katello-candlepin-db-name candlepin5db --katello-candlepin-db-user candlepin5 --katello-candlepin-db-password candlepin5pw --katello-candlepin-db-port 5432 --foreman-db-sslmode allow --katello-candlepin-db-ssl true --katello-candlepin-db-ssl-verify false

Created the pull requests, but I wanted someone from developers to look at it first.
Becuse if we patched candlepin to quote --url argument
https://github.com/candlepin/candlepin/blob/master/server/code/setup/cpdb#L90
-liquibase_options = "--driver=%s --classpath=%s --changeLogFile=%s --url=%s --username=%s" % (
+liquibase_options = "--driver=%s --classpath=%s --changeLogFile=%s --url='%s' --username=%s" % (
so there would be no need to escape the ampersand in the installer code

IMHO cpdb should properly handle this. I'm surprised it uses commands.getoutput and that uses a shell. I'd have expected it to use subprocess.check_output but that's python 2.7+ and would break on EL6. OTOH, you could use subprocess.Popen to achieve the same thing without opening a shell. You could even pass in an array of arguments without having to worry about escaping anything.
