In kernel we have function to escape a given string. Let's use it instead of custom approach. This fixes a bug. The current implementation wrongly prints octal numbers: only two first digits are used in case when 3 are required and the rest of the string ends up cut off. Additionally the \f, \v, \a, and \e are escaped to their alphabetic representation. It's safe to do since the print_ssid() is currently used for messaging only.
