Closes #22652: Disable autoescaping for Config Templates (#22653)

Force autoescape=False in ConfigTemplate.get_environment_params() after
merging user-supplied environment parameters. Config templates produce
plain-text network configurations and scripts, so HTML autoescaping is
not applicable.

Keep the override out of the shared render_jinja2() helper so export
templates can continue to use autoescape=True for HTML output. Add
regression coverage for both behaviors.
