    # The escaping algorithm operates as follows: given a string, any "/" character is replaced by "-", and all other characters which are not ASCII alphanumerics, ":", "_" or "." are replaced by C-style "\x2d" escapes. In addition, "." is replaced with such a C-style escape when it would appear as the first character in the escaped string.
    # When the input qualifies as absolute file system path, this algorithm is extended slightly: the path to the root directory "/" is encoded as single dash "-". In addition, any leading, trailing or duplicate "/" characters are removed from the string before transformation. Example: /foo//bar/baz/ becomes "foo-bar-baz".

      Takes some options, an attrset and a file path and generates a bash snippet that

      { _secret = "/path/to/secret" }

      in the attrset replaced with the contents of the file
      "/path/to/secret" in the output JSON.

      The first argument exposes the following options:

      - attr: The name of the secret attribute that will be processed, defaults to "_secret"
      - loadCredential: A boolean determining whether the script should load secrets directly (false)
        or load them from $CREDENTIALS_DIRECTORY (true). In the latter case the output attribute set
        will contain a .credentials attribute with the necessary credential list that can be passed
        to systemd's `LoadCredential=` option.

      The output of this utility is an attribute set containing the main script and optionally
      a list of credentials:

      {
        # The main script
        script = "...";

        # If the loadCredential option was set:
        credentials = [
          "secret1:/path/to/secret1"
          #...
        ];
      }

      When a configuration option accepts an attrset that is finally
      converted to JSON, this makes it possible to let the user define
      arbitrary secret values.

      Example:
        If the file "/path/to/secret" contains the string
        "topsecretpassword1234",

        genJqSecretsReplacement { } {
          example = [
            {
              irrelevant = "not interesting";
            }
            {
              ignored = "ignored attr";
              relevant = {
                secret = {
                  _secret = "/path/to/secret";
                };
              };
            }
          ];
        } "/path/to/output.json"

        would generate a snippet that, when run, outputs the following
        JSON file at "/path/to/output.json":

        {
          "example": [
            {
              "irrelevant": "not interesting"
            },
            {
              "ignored": "ignored attr",
              "relevant": {
                "secret": "topsecretpassword1234"
              }
            }
          ]
        }

      The attribute set { _secret = "/path/to/secret"; } can contain extra
      options, currently it accepts the `quote = true|false` option.

      If `quote = true` (default behavior), the content of the secret file will
      be quoted as a string and embedded.  Otherwise, if `quote = false`, the
      content of the secret file will be parsed to JSON and then embedded.

      Example:
        If the file "/path/to/secret" contains the JSON document:

        [
          { "a": "topsecretpassword1234" },
          { "b": "topsecretpassword5678" }
        ]

        genJqSecretsReplacement { } {
          example = [
            {
              irrelevant = "not interesting";
            }
            {
              ignored = "ignored attr";
              relevant = {
                secret = {
                  _secret = "/path/to/secret";
                  quote = false;
                };
              };
            }
          ];
        } "/path/to/output.json"

        would generate a snippet that, when run, outputs the following
