Limit escape handling to wildcard case only (\* → *)

[Copilot]

The escape handling was stripping a leading backslash from any path segment starting with \, not just the \* wildcard-escape case. This was a backwards-incompatible change that broke references to JSON keys whose first character is literally \.

Change

• Replace pathElement.startsWith("\\") with an exact match on "\\*", so only the escaped wildcard sequence \* is treated specially and resolved to the literal property name *.

// Before: any \-prefixed segment had its backslash stripped
if (pathElement.startsWith("\\")) {
    pathElement = pathElement.substring(1);
    isWildcard = false;
}

// After: only \* is treated as an escaped wildcard
if ("\\*".equals(pathElement)) {
    pathElement = "*";
    isWildcard = false;
}

All other path segments, including those with a literal leading \, are left untouched.

Just as a heads up, I was blocked by some firewall rules while working on your feedback. Expand below for details.

Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

• checkstyle.org
  • Triggering command: /opt/hostedtoolcache/CodeQL/2.24.3/x64/codeql/tools/linux64/java/bin/java /opt/hostedtoolcache/CodeQL/2.24.3/x64/codeql/tools/linux64/java/bin/java -jar /opt/hostedtoolcache/CodeQL/2.24.3/x64/codeql/xml/tools/xml-extractor.jar --fileList=/tmp/codeql-scratch-3f672d5de33c41b7/dbs/java/working/files-to-index8379757725709974429.list --sourceArchiveDir=/tmp/codeql-scratch-3f672d5de33c41b7/dbs/java/src --outputDir=/tmp/codeql-scratch-3f672d5de33c41b7/dbs/java/trap/java (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)
