Better handling for special characters in values

Historically (due to limitations in the Splunk target), special characters would be replaced (e.g. = -> :, " -> ''). This is problematic as it makes reproducing production issues harder (e.g. it is common to have = in an HTTP request query string)

Now, rather than replacing characters inside values, encapsulate them in quotes

There's a prioritized preference of quoting characters: [", ', `]
