In other ash variants, a partial implementation of ksh-like cmd >file*
adds and removes CTLESC bytes ('\x81') in redirection filenames,
preserving 8-bit transparency. Long ago, dash removed the code to add
the CTLESC bytes, but not the code to remove them, causing corruption of
filenames containing CTLESC. This commit removes the code to remove the
CTLESC bytes.
The CTLESC byte occurs frequently in UTF-8 encoded non-Latin text.
This bug has been reported various times to Ubuntu and Debian (e.g.
Launchpad Ubuntu #422298). This patch is the same as the one submitted
by Alexander Korolkov in Ubuntu #422298.
