The oracle backend client erroneously backslash escapes the password field
passed to the sqlplus binary when trying to execute runshell.

#diff-54b46d05e1da568b3cc987c423e00c50R197 has the PR and line that
introduced this issue.
Expectation:
`./manage.py dbshell` opens an interactive shell when an Oracle database
is configured.
Actual behavior:
`./manage.py dbshell` fails to login yielding error `ORA-01017: invalid
username/password; logon denied`. Additionally it will print the arguments
passed to the sqlplus binary to standard error and reveal the password has
unexpected backslash characters in it.
