Description
### Expected Behavior
When using inso generate, the path variables should be converted to valid regex; replacing invalid characters with some other character.
### Actual Behavior
The path variables are copied as-is, including characters that would be invalid for a regex in kong.
### Reproduction Steps
- create a spec with a `-` in a path variable;
- use inso generate config
- sync the config with DeCK

Research direction
Start with the inso generate config path-variable handling and review pull request #5096, which the issue identifies as a proposed solution. Reproduce the case using a path variable containing a hyphen, then verify that generated regexes use valid replacements and sync successfully with DeCK.
