+ Fix JaCoCo exclude patterns format. JJB 6.x does not process
+ the job config when double quotes are used and returns the
+ following error.
+
+ Error:
+ requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 500 Server Error: Server Error for url:
+ https://jenkins.opendaylight.org/releng/job/distribution-\
+ merge-managed-argon/config.xml
+
+ Using YAML multiline introduces spaces between lines that causes JJB
+ updates to fail when the job exists on Jenkins. Therefore, as workaround
+ use double-quoted string with newline escape.
