Details

Description:

Custom scripts in `~/.config/caja/scripts` should receive the selected files or directories as arguments regardless of what their names are, as long as the names do not contain invalid characters such as `NUL` or `/`.

Instead, if selected files' names contain, or end with, certain characters such as the percent sign `%` or the single quote `'`, the custom script receives garbled file names as arguments, or the custom script is not run at all.

Additional info:
* package version(s): `mate-desktop-1.24.1-1`, `caja-1.24.1-1`
* config and/or log files etc.: Not applicable
* link to upstream bug report, if any: [1]

Steps to reproduce: Create a script `~/.config/caja/scripts/custom-script-test` that dumps its arguments to a text file, then call it on various files containing, or ending with, a percent sign or a single quote; also call it on various combinations of such files to see extra crazily mangled arguments
