Title:
  const link support can't handle escaped charactors

Bug description:
  I think the following should work, but it doesn't.  The culprit seems
  to be the call to dbTranslateEscape() in dbRecordField() and
  dbRecordInfo().  The escaped newline is handled correctly by dbLex,
  but the later dbJLinkParse() errors on the now unescaped newline.

  > record(stringin, "test") {
  >      field(INP, {const:"multi\nline"})
  > }

  > dbJLinkInit: lexical error: invalid character inside string.
  >                          {"const":"multi line"}
  >                      (right here) ------^
