Winlogbeat does not properly handle CN's with comma(s) in name

Hi All,

I was looking at some Winlogbeat events, and I noticed that it doesn't seem to be properly handling CN's with comma(s) in them.

Example (backslashes present to show escapes):

Have a user like so: Admin\\, user

For the related.users field I would expect to see:

"related": {
    "user": [
      "Admin\\, user"
    ]
  }

Instead what I see is:

"related": {
    "user": [
      "user",
      "Admin\\"
    ]
  }

I'm using Winlogbeat 7.10.0 currently, but didn't see any patch notes from the later releases regarding this.
