systemd-systemctl: Fix instance name parsing with escapes or periods

Fixes [YOCTO #16130]

When extracting the instance name from a template instances such as
'example@host.domain.com.service', the systemctl replacement script will
split the instance on the first period, producing an instance argument of
'host' and a template of 'example@.domain.com.service'.  This is incorrect,
as systemd will split on the last period, producing an instance argument of
'host.domain.com' and a template of 'example@.service'.

When constructing the template name, the script will also pass the string
as is to re.sub(), which will try to process any backslash escapes in the
string.  These are legal in systemd unit names and should be preserved.
They also are not valid Python escape sequences.  Use re.escape() to
preserve anything in the unit name that might be considered a regex
exscape.
