- properly escape quotes in passwords by calling to_ruby
- try db_password to be Sensitive
database passwords can contain special characters, especially " and ' so we can't just print the value of the field enclosed by double quotes as that would break whenever the user uses a literal " in their password using to_ruby here and not to_yaml, as the former gives us correct escaping without the whole `---` and `\n` enclosing that to_yaml forces. using to_yaml would require to pass *the whole* config hash to it

There was a problem hiding this comment.
If I drop this, I get:
expected that the catalogue would contain File[/etc/foreman/database.yml] with content set to /password: "secret"/ but it is set to #<Sensitive [value redacted]>
so maybe with_content is a bad idea to begin with?

with_content(sensitive(…)) works for the plain case, but not once to_ruby is involved. yay
