bug#38404: 27.0.50; deleting files with ~ on the end with tramp did not work

[Jean Louis <bugs@gnu.support>]

Deleting file /etc/courier/aliases/20191810~ did not work inside of
Tramp, there was "permission denied". But other files could be
deleted. I was root at the time and I could delete any file. When I
entered with ssh to system as root I could delete the file. With Tramp
it did not work.
