#7546: Secret key generator wrongly escapes double-quote

 Priority:  normal         |   Milestone:      
Component:  WordPress.org  |     Version:      
 Severity:  normal         |    Keywords:      
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 The generator at http://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/ escapes the
 double-quote character with a backslash, e.g.

 define('AUTH_KEY', '... x&m\"\'0RJ ...}');
 ...

 Since only the single-quote and backslash can be escaped that way in a
 single-quoted string, the backslash will be included verbally in the
 string.

 This will reduce randomness by a small amount and will make the string
 longer than 64 characters.
