In Eshell, allow an escaped newline at the end of a command

2024-01-28T23:54:46+00:00

Normally, "echo" runs the command "echo".  Likewise,
"echo\" should too: we escape the first newline, and then
the second one is unescaped and should send the command input to
Eshell.  Previously, you had to press RET a third time, but now it
works as expected.

* lisp/eshell/esh-arg.el (eshell-looking-at-backslash-return): Make
obsolete.
(eshell-parse-backslash): A backslash sequence is only incomplete if
there's nothing at all after it.

* test/lisp/eshell/esh-arg-tests.el (esh-arg-test/escape/newline)
(esh-arg-test/escape-quoted/newline): Remove inaccurate comment;
escaped newlines are always special.
(esh-arg-test/escape/trailing-newline): New test.
