ASL config: typo ALLOW_escapeshelarg

We noticed an inconvenient typo in the ASL configuration. The variable that allows the PHP-function 'escapeshellarg' has a typo in it's name, causing "asl -s -f" to unfairly disable this function.

Impact:
The PHP-function 'escapeshellarg' will be disabled for all ALS 4 users that have enabled PHP checks, even if they have set the allow variable to "yes".

How to fix it?
Change ALLOW_escapeshelarg="yes" to ALLOW_escapeshellarg="yes" in /etc/asl/config, and run 'asl -s -f'

After reporting this via a support case (no. 35834) we quickly got confirmation of the bug and a promise that it will be fixed in the next release.
