templater: do not process \-escapes at parsestring() (issue4290)

This patch brings back pre-2.8.1 behavior.

The result of parsestring() is stored in templater's cache, t.cache, and then
it is parsed as a template string by compiletemplate(). So t.cache should keep
an unparsed string no matter if it is sourced from config value. Otherwise
backslashes would be processed twice.

The test vector is borrowed from 64b4f0cd7336.

  $ hg init

  $ echo 123 > a
  $ hg add a
  $ hg commit -m "first" a

  $ mkdir sub
  $ echo 321 > sub/b
  $ hg add sub/b
  $ hg commit -m "second" sub/b

  $ cat sub/b
  321

  $ hg co 0
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved

  $ cat sub/b 2>/dev/null || echo "sub/b not present"
  sub/b not present

  $ test -d sub || echo "sub not present"
  sub not present
