Encoded string for use as a value in LDAP DNs.Remarks
This method encodes all but known safe characters defined in the safe list.
RFC 2253 defines the format in which special characters need to be
escaped to be used inside a search filter. Special characters need to be
encoded in #XX format where XX is the hex representation of the character or a
specific \ escape format.
The following examples illustrate the use of the escaping mechanism.

| hello | \ hello |
| hello | hello \ |
| #hello | \#hello |
