Administration passwords containing most special characters are broken

Merging !47 (merged) introduced a regression: when entering a password containing any special character but @%+=:,./- the actual password will be single-quoted. So e.g. a! → 'a!'.

This is because we run shlex.quote() on the password we feed into mkpasswd. We should just drop that.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
