bug#60195: 27.1; dired failed to delete file with multi-line name

[David Lambert]

I had a file named
' 0 -1 -2 -3'$'\n'' -4 -5 -6 -7'$'\n'' -8 -9 -10 -11'$'\n\n''-12 -13 -14 
-15'$'\n''-16 -17 -18 -19'$'\n''-20 -21 -22 -23'$'\n'

attempting to delete it with the usual d x yes instructions, emacs did
not remove the file.
