homebrew_cask: fix sudo_password failing with special characters (#11850)
* homebrew_cask: fix sudo_password with special characters in password
The SUDO_ASKPASS script embedded the password inside single quotes, which
breaks shell parsing whenever the password contains a single quote. Use a
quoted heredoc (cat <<'SUDO_PASS') instead, which treats the content
completely literally regardless of special characters.
Also replace .file.close() with .flush() (correct semantics — flushes
the write buffer without leaving the NamedTemporaryFile in a half-closed
state) and remove the redundant add_cleanup_file() call (the context
manager already deletes the file on exit).
Fixes #4957
* homebrew_cask: add changelog fragment for #11850
* homebrew_cask: fix sudo_password example and clarify ansible_become_password
* homebrew_cask: use shlex.quote() for sudo_password instead of heredoc
shlex.quote() is the standard Python approach for shell-safe quoting
and handles all special characters without the edge cases of heredocs.
