bitbake: data.py: fixes bad substitution when running devshell

Running bitbake inside make results in the exported environment variable
MAKEOVERRIDES="${-*-command-variables-*-}", which the shell chokes on
when trying to expand it. But of course, it probably shouldn't have been
trying to expand it in the first place -- so just escape the dollar
sign.
