paste: handle list ending with unescaped backslash

[cakebaker]

Show an error if the user provides a delimiter list ending with an unescaped backslash. For example, paste -d'\' will now show an error whereas paste -d'\\' will work fine.

This makes the tests delim-bs1 and delim-bs2 in https:/coreutils/coreutils/blob/master/tests/misc/paste.pl pass.

Hm, looks like it doesn't work on Windows...

As I'm unable to fix the Windows-related issue I disabled the failing test for Windows.

[sylvestre]

Sounds good, especially with "Congrats! The gnu test tests/misc/paste is no longer failing!" :)
