Description

Agent tries to expand variables in regextract, even if it doesn't make sense
Escaping with ${const.dollar}{TEXT} doesn't fix the issue, nor does ${const.dollar}{const.dollar}{const.dollar}{const.dollar}{const.dollar}{const.dollar}{TEXT} (i stopped at 6)

This prevents using shell variables in, for instance , ssh_key_definition (see #10715)

Perhaps a workaround could be to assign to a variable (so that the expansion is done) before the regextract call. It would be needed in each technique using regextract.

This one is an architecture bug.
