Fix segfault for sh -c 'echo {a..Z}'
Bash produces different output for that test, but I'm not sure I care? http://lists.landley.net/pipermail/toybox-landley.net/2020-September/011990.html The problem is parse_word() guarantees its output's quotes/escapes are completed, but brace expansion happens after parse_word() and thus violating assumptions later code depends on to not do redundant error checking. The easy fix is to escape punctuation produced by parse_word (which in bash can only happen when you span upper and lower case ranges so "\" is the only interesting character). I could special case this to match bash exactly, but I'm waiting for someone to complain instead.
