kamctl: make jsonrpc filter portable

The filter has a regex looking for a literal '{' in the beginning of a
line. Some awk implementations interpret this as a meta character, so
the regex is deemed broken. Example with busybox awk (POSIX):

root at hank2:~# kamctl ps
awk: bad regex '^{.+"id"[ 	]*:[ 	]*[0-9]+[ 	]*}$': Invalid contents of {}
root at hank2:~#

To fix this enclose the character in square brackets. This always
matches for a literal '{' and is portable.
