bug#12378: 24.2.50; `ibuffer' is broken for buffer names with newlines

[Drew Adams]

emacs -q
 
C-x 4 b a C-q RET b RET
 
M-x ibuffer
 
Ibuffer correctly shows the buffer named "a^Jb" (but perhaps it should
show the newline as "^J" or as "\n").  But some of the behavior is
bugged.
 
Use `d' and `DEL' (backspace) a couple of times.  Use `d' and `x'.  Try
clicking mouse-1 after the `a' in the buffer name.
 
The display and the functioning of Ibuffer is messed up whenever a
buffer name contains a newline character.
 
Note that `list-buffers' and `buffer-menu' do not have any such problem.
They appear to work OK with such buffer names.

I've pushed a fixed to the trunk for this now.
