test: known broken tests for escape characters in config files.

glib generates the following escape characters with their usual
meanings: \n, \t, \r, and \\, along with \s for _leading_
spaces. Currently notmuch fails to unescape these on reading the
config files. These tests demonstrate this bug; the one new test that
passes is because apparently glib only escapes tabs at the beginning
of a key.
