Fix and test handling of backslashes in hooks (#3909)
* Update hooks to use `read -r` and `printf`

This portably avoids any interpretation of backslash escapes by the
shell.

* Support running make_tc_task elsewhere

* Add a test for backslashes in task descriptions

# The on-modify event is triggered separately for each task modified. This hook
# script can accept/reject the modification. Processing will continue.
# Input:
# - line of JSON for the original task
# - line of JSON for the modified task, the diff being the modification
read -r original_task
read -r modified_task
# Output:
# - JSON, modified or unmodified.
# - Optional feedback/error.
printf "%s\n" "$modified_task"
echo 'FEEDBACK'
# Status:
# - 0: JSON accepted, non-JSON is feedback.
# - non-0: JSON ignored, non-JSON is error.
